They weigh a ton also (well, about 25kg each). Actually a flat panel is only about twice as energy efficient as a CRT. However flat panels don't give as much radiation. However I am recycling I guess, as otherwise the monitors would probably go into a land fill - I don't know how much energy goes into producing a flat panel either. There is a lot to consider if you try to be green ;-).

I assume you have to put the sun glasses on and slap on some sun tan lotion when you power up those things
(bet they cause brown outs as well in your area :P)

For work I have a 17" laptop (1920x1200) - which is a little tough on the eyes. At home I have a couple of 21" trinatron CRTs that I run at 1280x1024 (sometimes at 1600x1200 - they can do 2048x1536 but it's a little blurry and small) - I got them from TradeMe - replaced my trusty 17" screen. I of course record my CodeGearGuru videos at 800x600 (with a large font), which is really hard to program in effectively. I don't think I'd ever want to go back to 1024x768 which I did all my D7 development on (my old laptop).

Nice easy topic :-)
How big / how many screens you use on your development machine.

At work I have dual 17" lcds. Trying to pitch to the boss and third screen, or getting dual 22"s. At home I have a widescreen 19" and 17" lcds. Thinking about going to dual 22"s.

Anyone here got three screens? (on the same machine ofc).

Anyone using anything bigger then 19?

Churs.
