So I decided to get myself two screens again (been on a old CRT monitor for the past 6 months) and found two sensible screens, BenQ 24" LCD G2420HD, for a good price, $200 per screen, and decided to get two. So I got them yesterday and holy fucking shit they're big :D going from a 4:3 19'' CRT to two WS 24'' TFTs is quite the change. I mean I love it but I also think I'm gonna break my neck while switching screens :D Anyway, here's a pic: ![[image loading]](http://i35.tinypic.com/2nw3hxv.jpg)    | ||

![[image loading]](http://lh3.ggpht.com/_Sc6kn-boNWE/THlwLCmtvjI/AAAAAAAAAi0/8ryIELerrD0/s800/IMAG0003.jpg) Once you go HDTV, you can't go back :D As far as "screen awareness" 22 inch isn't anywhere near too big. It obviously depends on how close you sit to your monitor but anything above 37" starts to be a problem because you have to turn your head to see everything | ||
