Re: (OT) good monitor or screen for coding please suggest

No question - LCDs. A 17" LCD has the same viewing area as a 19" CRT and, especially with DVI, generates much crisper text even at the lower resolutions most LCDs provide at the moment.

I use a two LCD monitors at work and would find it rather traumatic to give one up. I'd hardly be able to keep an eye on the CB at all without two monitors.

Two monitors rock. I'd hate to go back to a one monitor setup. If it's a choice between one big monitor and two small - go for the two small. You'll get more surface area for your money.	[reply]
