i got a 19" monitor today from my sister.
what a big difference going from a 17" monitor to an 19"
what resolution you guys using with your 19" monitor? and what refresh rate you have set for your monitor.

1600x1200, 100 refresh. I only have a 19 at work, 22 at home. But I use the same settings on both.

I find that the 17" trout goes up much smoother than the 19", but I suppose some like the long lasting experience that the new 19" models give you.

at 1600 x 1200 does your desktop icon look tiny on your 19 inch monitor.
and web page text look small?
No. You can use jumbo icons and increase font sizes if you want.

I had a 17", went to a 19" and now back to a 17" - but to a flatscreen. I like it more than the 19".

I have a 21" Sony flatscreen. I guess that makes me a little bigger than you guys.

I can't believe how nice my 19" flatscreen LCD is. I'll never be able to go back to a regular screen. Enjoy once it arrives.

Wow, I remember how big going from 15 to 17 was. When you plop your 19" on the desk you're going to feel the need to back your chair up 20 feet.

I'd think if you're already at 17", you don't need to worry!

Just got a 2001FP last week with poker money, 20.1" of sweet flatscreen 4-tabling goodness!

One of the five best things I've ever purchased. I'm looking to pick up a second one in the next month or two to replace my 2nd monitor (a 19" CRT).

I am envious of your 21" monitor. I am rockin' a 17 incher myself. of course, its not the size of your monitor that counts, but what you display on it.

I've still got my 17" Radiation Master (...Gateway) 9000 from nearly 8 years ago. It's still kicking but from time to time, it'll flash yellow and then return to normal as the tube is slowly going.
Anyone wishing to contribute a 19"-21" CRT or any LCD to the "in the memory of SI's old longtime monitor" fund, it would be greatly appreciated ;)
