Hi peeps,
Basically, I'm going to buy a new TFT. The main purpose of this is to be a desktop/gaming TFT, but watching movies would be nice.
For your average desktop setup, what's the best screen size, 24" or 30"? I don't care about gaming FPS considerations, I'm getting an 8800GTX and will sooner or later get another, when the prices drop (given that 30" would likely have a higher native resolution, someone's bound to mention it).
Basically: is 30" too big for a desktop TFT?!
edit: Some facts about my circumstances:
I will be sitting about 3 feet away from the monitor.
It will be used for:
- Music production using Cubase SX 4
- Development using Visual Studio 2005
- Gaming
The room will be sometimes lit brightly, sometimes very dark (good for writing music and games atmosphere) and sometimes quite dim. Difficult to say which will be the dominant lighting scenario.

p.s. I've thrown in 32" for good measure into the poll
