    Best sized LCD to sit vertically next to a 23"?

    A 17" or 19" in landscape would be about the same height. 17" is a bit shorter and 19" is a bit higher. The resolution would match quite well too. Also a thing to remember with setups with portrait monitors is that viewing angles are usually optimized for landscape viewing, so I would suggest...

    Acer 120Hz 23.6" 1920x1080 LCD... but it's orange!

    With games the vertical viewing area stays the same. No matter what your aspect ratio is, the image top and bottom are at the same positions. So with a wider screen you see more. Specifically you see more to the sides which is usually the direction you would like to see more. You don't really...

    NEC 23" IPS EA231WMi

    The exact opposite. DP and DVI are not compatible in any way. You can only use passive adapters like that if your GPU has special DP+ connectors which can passthrough DVI signal. In most cases you need an active adapter (~100$).

    New to Dual Monitor setup

    Usually when game is running full screen the mouse is locked to the game. You have to ALT+TAB out of the game if you want to use the desktop. You can of course see the desktop all the time.

    SED is Dead (?). Love Live FED?

    Sony is trying to get their first OLED displays out this year. It's only 11" though, but it has moderate contrast ratio of 1 000 000:1 and the display is only 3mm thick. http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/12/sony-1-000-000-1-oled-tv-on-sale-in-2007/

    Multi display setup - video card options?

    Probably the cheapest way to get those monitors connected is to buy a cheap AGP or PCI Express adapter (depending on your motherboard, if you are buying a new one get one with PCI Express). Even the cheap ones can fit two monitors in to the them. Then you need a another adapter for the rest of...

    What Is Your Resolution???

    Change the font size to bigger, instead of playing with the resolutions.

    Looking for a Quad-Display Card

    Getting two dual-display cards would probably be cheaper, even if you have to get new motherboard (except if you need some hugely expensive special MB).

    If you own a 19" Widescreen: what are the resolution choices?

    You can actually increase the font size.

    Who still makes CRTs?

    Only widescreen crt I have ever heard is the Sony FW900 (and it's re-badged versions) and it is not made anymore. You could try to hunt a good one from ebay, but it may be hard.

    Where are the 1920x1200 22" lcds?

    High density displays would be nice. But then again the amount of pixels is a major factor in how much the display costs. For example which one would you choose a 20" monitor with 1920x1200 or a 24" with 1920x1200 if they costed about the same and would be otherwise identical? I woul certainly...

    Where are the 1920x1200 22" lcds?

    But it is. And as I said before there are displays with 1920x1200 for laptops, but they are purely because there are limitations in physical size in laptops.

    Where are the 1920x1200 22" lcds?

    No, there are no 1920x1200 22" TFT's and probably never will. 1920x1200 resolution is for 24" and up monitors. If you want more pixels on a 22" TFT, stack up the cash and get a IBM T221. The reason for this is in my opinion that normal users don't need high density in their displays and...

    Show Your LCD(s) setups!!!

    Maybe it is because keyboards haven't really improved in a long while. And some may think that old keyboards are actually better, because you can push more buttons at the same time.
