featured_spectre Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 I finally got the monitor I was after! Its a Benq 19" widescreen, and does the resolution I require. I reasoned that as well as needing one so that I do not strain my eyes and make my chronic headaches worse (and yes I do wear glasses whilst at a PC), it is also ideal for me so that I can have multiple pages open without compromising on size of font etc. Took a while but I got there in the end! yay me!
featured_spectre Posted May 6, 2010 Author Posted May 6, 2010 Minimum of 1600x900. Most of my work is reports that are wide (in terms they have to be printed landscape rather than portrait to fit the info).
CHR1S Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 I dont get it, google found this one Acer X203 20" Widescreen LCD Monitor 1600x900 50,000:1 (Dynamic) 5ms VGA - Black - Ebuyer after 0.24 seconds, man your impatient
featured_spectre Posted May 6, 2010 Author Posted May 6, 2010 Hahaha Chris well put . No it was advised by occupational health that I get a larger monitor due to my chronic headaches and migraines. What I meant was that the monitor is now actually sitting on my desk and is in use!
CHR1S Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 Ahh, I get you, but why only 19"? I would have gone a bit overboard!!
featured_spectre Posted May 6, 2010 Author Posted May 6, 2010 limited budgets to start with, plus it suits my needs.
mstarkie Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 What monitors are we all running? Mines a 22inch max res : 2048x1536
Guest theeldergeek Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 What monitors are we all running? Mines a 22inch max res : 2048x1536 Through choice, dual 17" Dell monitors, 1280 x 1024. Perfect for my humble needs. At home, I run a 24" HP but it's just too much for everyday PC use. Great for games and DVD's though. Not entirely sure I want a big screen at work. Quite happy with extended desktop. Even though I suppose it does equate to a large screen overall, I'm happier using 2 individual screens.

StewartKnight Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 I have a 22" lcd, but I'd like to have a second one to add to that!!!
danrhodes Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 I run either a 50" Telly or a 24" TFT Monitor, depending on where I plug in!
SYNACK Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 22" 1680*1050 and a 17" 1920*1200 (laptop screen) but I really do need bigger moniters as they fill up so quickly.
