As advertised on the box. One of the two -or both- media queries will return 
true, in which case the rules are applied. If both return false, the rules are 
not applied.

@media screen and (max-device-width: 1920px), screen and (max-width: 480px) 
{... }
This will always return TRUE on _your_ monitor (given what you stated about the 
width your monitor).

Similarly,
@media screen and (max-device-width: 2560px), screen and (max-width: 480px) 
{... }
Same as the first one.

@media screen and (max-device-width: 1280px), screen and (max-width: 480px) 
{... }
This will only return TRUE if you window is 480px wide or less

@media screen and (max-device-width: 1280px), screen and (min-width: 2560px) 
{... }
will only return TRUE if you make you window quite a bit larger than you 
monitor.
