Two 19" standard TFTs would give you an effective resolution of 2560*1024. Unless all your users have large monitors as well, it's best to develop on a screen that is a common standard. It's so annoying to fire up a complex app that's been developed at 1600*1200 on a 1280*1024 screen and find that is just doesn't fit. -----Original Message----- From: windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Sorin Srbu Sent: 07 April 2008 21:09 To: windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [windows2000] OT: Arguments for a bigger monitor Hi all and sorry for this OT-post. I've been given the task to take over and revamp all our extranet web-sites for the department, and essentially become the resident webmaster and ddesigner, and one single thing is driving me crazy while coding... I have a 21" 1600x1200 CRT, and it's just to small to see all the stuff (side-toolboxes and at the same time see the actual code) on the screen (while eg using Sharepoint Designer [SPD]). SPD as you might know, has all those nifty little toolbars and toolboxes. While some of them I use frequently, I don't seem to be able to have them pinned and also se a reasonably wide window for the code in the middle. Could you guys give me a few good arguments I could tell my boss in order to get something like a 24" widescreen (feels like widescreens would be ideal for this purpose) with at least about 1900x1200 or some such.
