Two 2005FPWs or one 2405?

[halik]

Anyone? Right now I've got a single 2005fpw, so another one would make a nice dual desktop. On the other hand, 2405 would just be sweet because of the sheer size....

Two FPW's would match and look better than two differently sized screens plus it would be cheaper.

Funny thing. I started with one 2005, then got another by mistake by Dell.

Two 20's is super nice, great for games and working.

Then I got a smokin deal on the 2405......and I've never went back.....the 20 seems small.

For the money, get the 2407 cause it supports full HD in the component in, and HDCP in the DVI in.....

You won't regret it for ONE MINUTE.

FTW. otherwise, getting one 24" would be better then one 20" cause it is also true HD as well as HDCP enabled so you can use it to watch HD-DVD/Blu-Ray later.

I vote dual displays, I like having two distinct workspaces, it kicks arse for:

-programming (originally usage)
-writing papers (sources on one side, paper on the other)
-making powerpoints (see above)
-chatting online/reading email/itunes open all without disturbing primary workspace

seems to be too much jugglign with windows if just one large display
OTOH, one big display would be better for:
-movie watching
-gaming (maybe, I'm not much of a gamer) - you would need a kickarse graphics card to drive a humongous display at full blast

have you ever used a dual setup?

if you have, the answer is clear and this thread is unnecessary. DUAL FTW.
