    What screen resolution are you using?

    Let's have fresh stats about screen resolutions.

    I used to set my 19" monitor to 1152 x 864, but it stared to hurt my eyes so I set it to 1024 x 768. It satisfies all my browsing & working needs.

        I had to vote other as well.. 1 screen is 1440 X 900 (19" widescreen LCD) and the second is 1680 X 1050 (22" widescreen LCD). On the other hand my browser is rarely more than 1100 pixels wide. The other computers in the house all have 1440 X 900 resolution on 19" widescreen LCDs. I'll never go back to a 4:3 ratio on my monitors.

          1920 x 1200. I love the increased space it gives me. Makes having multiple source code files open at a time a breeze. I don't think I could go back to a 4:3 monitor especially now that I can watch 1080p films on my current monitor.

            I'm running 1440x900 on my laptop, and 1024x768 on my desktop.

                  Just a shame the cool wallpaper is too stretched.

                    Yeah, KDE ftw ... but ... er... It's not all that stretched to be honest... It was a panoramic wallpaper

                        Very interesting shots. Keep them coming.

                        So Widescreens seem to be the trend here? Never considered them before as I thought they're way too much expensive!

                          Whoa that's massive. If it weren't only those few icons on the desktop, I guess one would forget where he/she is going to in the middle of the way.

                          Edit: Hmm.. what's monitor size?

                            19" Widescreen LCDs are going for less than $200 U.S.. I got all of mine for $150.00 apiece on sale with a $30 mail in rebate so $120 each.
