YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CLUELESS ON THIS. THE HIGHER YOUR SCREEN RESOLUTION, THE BETTER THE IMAGES LOOK ON THE SCREEN AND THE EASIER IT IS TO EDIT THE IMAGES. SAYING AVID/SERIOUS PHOTOGRAPHERS (THE TYPE THAT WOULD SUBSCRIBE TO PHOTO WEB LIST LIKE THIS LIST) DONT NEED OR CANT/WONT BENEFIT FROM A HIGHER SPEC PC DISPLAY THAN AVERAGE NON DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHER IS THE DUMBEST FRICKIN' THING YOU HAVE EVER POSTED HERE AND YOU HAVE POSTED A WHOLE BUNCH OF DUMB SHIT. WHAT ARE YOU USING, 640X480? HIGHER PC SCREEN RESOLUTION M A T T E R S WITH DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY. MOST PEOPLE DO NOT PRINT EVERYTHING, MOST PEOPLE AT LEAST VIEW EVERTHING HOWEVER AND IF YOU CAN GREATLY IMPROVED THE VIEWING, IT MAKES NO SENSE TO SAY IT DOESNT MATTER...

Photographers take pictures to have pictures, not to have data files to look at on computer monitors. The computer is a means to an end, and the size of the screen has absolutely nothing in common with the finished product. A number of years ago, the enlarger was the industry tool for making pictures. What the above poster is alluding to would be akin to saying that if you were serious about photography, you would need to have an 8x10 enlarger in the basement to print your 6x7 negatives. If a person wants pictures for his own viewing pleasure, then optimize them for that purpose and leave them oon your hard drive. If you want to post pictures for the enjoyment of others, then stop being an idiot and follow the accepted standards regarding pixel dimensions.
