Ditto what Snakeshii said!

Plus, I think my color settings are screwed up.

My cels look so much brighter on desktops. Maybe it's just the kind of screen . . .

On my 17" CRT monitor the 1152 x 864 resolution looks best with a screen refresh rate of 75 Hz. Other displays look wrong in terms of scale and anti-aliasing properties.

I'd like a nice flat TFT or LCD screen to save desk space but I've noticed the picture quality is comparatively poor.

--on a 20" monitor. Pictures are nice, but I have to be able to read the tiny letters with my regular reading glasses!

this made me feel the need to figure out what my monitor was

19inch TFT LCD with dual hookups

i get really nice picture, espeically with the decent graphics card in my compy... but i -love- the extra space i have on my desk for things with the flat pannel monitor... bigger screen, more space, and the qulaity of the picture itself isn't even noticble from my old monitor. ^_^

My resolution on my home computer is 1152x864 pixels on a 19-inch Samsung monitor.

Given the font is smaller but makes for killer graphics when playing a game!

Been this way for about a year now.

I had the same problem with my laptop. Staring at the screen for 8 hours in class was straining my poor eyes. You can manually change the font size if you think it'll help. I changed mine to 'large' and it helps a lot.

I've got the exact same set-up, and I completely agree - for the price, the SyncMaster 930b just can't be beat. (Includes an 8ms response which helps make for way too may late-nite HL2 Episode 1 rounds.
