I used to run a 19 inch and 17 inch widescreen, but when I moved into the apartment I had to get a smaller desk, and I can't fit two monitors. But, I have a 22 inch now.

Sure, at work I run dual 19" LCD's, because I have email open, active directory, issue resolution database, 6 IE windows, Firefox, AIM, etc. No room at home, but I have a nice LG 19" widescreen.

Man, if I could I'd be running a 26" LCD.

I have 2 24inch monitors set up to give me a lovely res of 3840x1200 :) handy for photoshop and 3d max and all the other stuff i never use anymore.

1 Monitors an expensive Dell 2408WFP, an amazing monitor, well worth the 550£ at the time.

The other monitors a real cheap Acer one, used for extra space only, looks very nasty compared to the Dell, that extra 400£ makes a huge difference.

I have a 24" widescreen for main and a little 17" lcd on the side for browsing the intarweb, im, etc.

At work, two 19" lcd side by side. Works way better for writing code.

There is absolutely no way to go back to 1 screen.

Running 1280x1024 @ a 17(or was it 19?)", and(unfortunately) 1024x768 at a 17/15" screen. Other screen is a TV though, so when I'm bored, I just switch on the xbawks :>

:? A LCD TV is just a monitor with a built-in tuner on it...

HD TV's also run 720p, while a computer monitor can run 1440 by 900, 1680 by 1050, etc.

Sure, I know the DVD's don't look any better unless you bought a Blu-ray player for your PC, but still :)

I started using dual screen setups at my last job a few years ago, and I NEVER want to go back to a single screen. Sadly, at home I don't have the space on my desk to put a second screen. Here at my current job, I have two 19 inch flat-panel LCD monitors sitting side-by-side. I love it.

Now if only I could convince my supervisor to get me a third monitor and a spare video card...
