New monitor

(OP)
Just wanted to pass on.
I just bought a new monitor. A Dell 20" Landscape. What a difference with the landscape!! Much better than the typical "square" monitors! Company payed $497 (company discount).
More of SolidWorks is displayed and can see all of my toolbars. I would never go smaller than 20". A little bigger would be nicer.

Is that the same as "widescreen"?

RE: New monitor

Now you know what it's like to have 2 20" ones next each other.....almost

RE: New monitor

In the small business area of Dell (9100) I am looking at a new PC for home and it comes with a 24" Widescreen... it's worth it just to have the monitor... IMO.

I am considering getting it a lot!

RE: New monitor

I just bought a Dell with dual monitor capability.  I set it up to run in dual monitor mode, so I can run two screens independently.  I have to say, though, that one continuous screen sounds nice.

RE: New monitor

I seen those the SW World this year... they look good if you are an Artist.

It reminds me of a Modern Michelangelo with his pallet full of paints, except it's a screen and stylus.
