Quote: Frankly, I've gone to a lower resolution for day to day tasks. I ran at 1600x1200 on my 19" monitor for about 4 years, but now I'm down to about 1280x1024, I believe. If I'm using certain programs like DVDlab or Paint Shop Pro, I'll bump it up to get more desktop space. Otherwise I've been much happier.
I'm a complete ho for resolution. At work I use 1600x1200 each on a pair of 19ins (one CRT, one LCD), at home 1920x1440 on a 21in CRT. The home monitor has recently been making nasty clicky noises, and I'm dreading the day it breaks, because nobody makes 21in 0.22mm-pitch monitors any more, nobody makes 1920x1440 or above LCDs except at ludicrous prices, I don't have the room for two 1600x1200 landscape, and nobody makes cards that do 1200x1600 portrait with open-source drivers except unaccelerated.
