LCD's
24" Dell Ultra Sharp for the primary - 17" LGE Flatron for the secondary.
(Projector for the home theatre though ;))
I use LCD screens primarily however I still have two CRT screens that I use for comparison. :)
Office: 19" IBM ThinkVision LCD for the primary; 24" Samsung SyncMaster for the secondary
Home: Hitachi 19" CRT for the primary; ViewSonic 17" LCD for the secondary
In the office, I actually do most of my Xtreme work on the Samsung. I have to run it as the secondary because it doesn't have enough power to operate as the primary.
My tech writer is using a 21" Hitachi CRT as his primary and a ViewSonic 17" LCD as his secondary. We also have access to a Lenovo ThinkVision 24" LCD.
19" NEC MultiSync FE991sb.....I hope it never breaks....I love it.
24 inch Dell Ultra Sharp (no Steve and I are not sharing the same monitor) :D
I use an acer laptop lcd 1024x768
samsung 19" TFT primary and a 15" TFT secondary at my desktop
And very soon an acer laptop with:
18,4" Full HD, high brightness (300-nit), Acer CineCrystal TFT LCD
Hans
19" ViewSonic VG920.
Well, I have 3 computers on a CRT and one on a LCD.
2 computers are working, one is in the shop and one I use now to figure
out what is wrong with it, a project to learn more about the build up of computers.
And I forget my amiga 1200 which has a crt and a special crt.(which can be used as a TV screen too if you hook it up to an old VCR)
LG Flatron as primary
Also have 2 19" LG Studioworks 995E CRTs, each on a seperatre desktop.
The wife uses an off brand flatscreen that is supposed to also work as a TV
but I don't like its picture quality. She got it special order (price) through her sewing club.
I use the photo of my baby
Actually, I wish that I would win a lottery or something so I can replace most of my CRT's with LCD's , it would save such an amount of space on my desk <sigh>
I think I bought the last CRT on Earth when I got my ViewSonic graphics series G90fb. I was warned that LCDs were not very graphic friendly yet (at that time). I hear that they are much better now, if not better than CRTs.
I have it sitting on a small table, 40 inches away from my face. Makes seeing the fine print hard sometimes but otherwise it would take up all my desk space.
Update:
I now use 2x 24" 16:10 LCD's (1920x1200 each).
Nancy for photography & graphics work the IPS panels are the best choice (of course they are the most expensive)
The common (cheaper) panels are mostly TN (Twisted Nematic) are not quite so good, but not terrible either (if you stick to a good brands).
You can learn more about the differences here.
Now primary is Iiyama ProLite 24 (LCD) and two CDR Sony Trinitron G420.
Sony its the best :)
2 HP w2408h for main rig. 1 ASUS 22'' for other rig.
19" Samsung LCD here.
Looking to upgrade to a bigger monitor shortly and get a dual monitor set up going.
Dell SP2008WFP 20″ LCD Widescreen Monitor
Use two Dell 20" LCD monitors -- not the widescreen but the squarer screen. Run them at 1600 x 1200. Been fairly pleased with them.
