Right now, I have three monitors, all hand-me-down crts. A 17 inchdell trinitron(white), a 19 inch dell trinitron(black) and a 17 inch emachine(silver) with an annoyingly bright front led. The trinitrons are hooked up to my main computer and the emachine is for my mythtv box.
Now, I've finally decided that its time to upgrade to an LCD now that their price has come down to a reasonable level. I would like to upgrade to something a little bit bigger and the 2007fpw looks mighty tempting. The problem with that is the fact that I would most likely have to ditch my tri-monitor setup due to the lack of desk space (I only have about an inch of extra space under my hutch between my A/V stack and the current monitors) , along with the lack of component input (any other suggestions for something similar with more inputs?) I could go with the non-widescreen version, but I don't feel like playing the dell LCD lottery. If I was to go with the dual widescreens I would probably just plug the mythtv box into the VGA on one of the screens and just switch between the computers.
Also, does anyone know of any app that acts like ultramon in reverse? I would be a lot more satisfied with the setup if I knew there was a program that would split the desktop down the middle thus giving each app a "maximize to first half" type option.
Thanks all in advance I know it was a bit wordy, but I would just like to hear your input on what route I should take.
