I got a new monitor for Xmas too. But this is a 22" Samsung Widescreen, and my old one is a 17" CRT...so i opted to go with just the 22 rather than dual. It's hard to get used to it for me...i've always used a CRT before this (other than at one of my jobs).

Damn that threeway is a nice setup. I love how all three monitors fit perfectly with each other.

Thanks. I bought the 20" 4:3 in advance knowing they'd match the 30" that I wanted so much.

Yeah, I'm using my old 19-inch Samsung LCD right next to my 22-inch Samsung LCD. Gotta love dual monitor. I couldn't do multiple CRT though. Just not good.

Thanks. Nice camera kit you've got there. I shoot with a D80 and have almost the same lens selection you've got too. By the way your photoblog calls an 8525 an 8252.

Went from this...


To this...

I couldn't stand the bezel between the two monitors...

I will take my 37" Westy over two 19" ones anyday of the week...

edit...for comparison, that is a 19" widescreen monitor on the right...

Playing that close to the 37" has got to be... bad. Now plug a console into it, sit a few feet back, beautiful!

actually, once you get used to it, it is pretty sweet...now it seems like a regular monitor (on steroids :) )....


the only drawback is having to go to work and use a 19" monitor there...

Nice setups people. I'm currently moving to two 20" Dell 2007FPs but that setup with the center 30" looks silly. Might go that way one day.
