My secondary monitor has just gone down and I need a replacement.
I just need some advice on how to set things up and what to buy.
I've got a dell 2407wfp which is my primary monitor, this I'm going to keep.
I used to have a 17" sony as my secondary and what I'm thinking now is 2 17" monitors in portrait mode, one each side of the dell.
The pixels sizes of the 24" and 17" match up pretty closely (0.2692 and 0.2634mm), the 17" is 33.72cm high in portrait mode vs the 24" at 32.31cm and of course the resolutions match pretty closely.
So need advice on a cheapish 17" nonwidescreen monitor that rotates 90º.
Or any better solutions.
Cheers.
