trq Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 A little bit excited. Bought myself a new 20" LCD since my 19" beast was giving up the ghost.Thought Id'e take the opertunity to take a picture or two of my setup at home. The new monitor is taking pride of place in the centre, my firewalls monitor (to the left) has been upgraded from an old 15" to my dying 19", my webserver (iMac running Gentoo) sits under the desk, my laptop is there and then, my gf's winblows machine (to the right).[attachment deleted by admin] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkBait Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Oh you got a dell 20". We use those at works and their great. I too recently bought a new monitor.Though only a 19" WS monitor, I love it, replaced my old 17" CRT Mitsubishi that took up like half my desk!Image can be seen here: http://tingram.ca/blog/Finding-an-LCD-Monitor:-Samsung-941bw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess for me, it's the lazy way out.thorpe, very nice, man. I'll be looking to get a big screen to hook my laptop up to for dual at home in a few months (once I pay off the laptop lol).

Daniel0 Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 I too like big widescreens. My laptop has a 20.1" widescreen. I get annoyed when working with computers with small screens (17" and lower) because I'm used to my own - I don't have enough space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel0 Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 27" for a computer monitor? That's huge!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redbullmarky Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 i've got a 40" one.jkas for my monitor, i'm still on a bog-standard 15" here. When I'm in serious need of extra desktop space, I just boot my mac up and plug my PC monitor in and voila - dual screen.I will be upgrading soon though, to at least a 17 or 19, but that'll wait til I get a whole new computer within a month or two. It's the resolution that's my concern rather than the actual physical size.Thorpe, that's some setup you have! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
