So, um, yeah... wow!

I've been somewhat complaining about my monitors here at work for quite some time now. Mostly I wanted flat panels for room, but recently noticed that one was considerably blurrier than the other...

Well, I had mentioned it to the boss that if it was in the budget sometime I'd appreciate a couple new 17" monitors... and he surprised me with two 19" monitors... WOW! Its like night and day. There's so much more room on my desk, and I don't feel like I'm sitting on top of the monitors, plus they're so much clearer...



That's all, just felt like sharing...

Yawn. That's soooo 2005. Dual 21" widescreens. 3360x2100 pixels of fun.

I'm sure someone can top that pixel count...

I just upgraded my 17" flat screen NEC to a 19" Sony Trinitron.

I know, I'm late.

Too bad none of you teach at a public school in Ohio. I believe that our computers are coal-fired.

You were exactly who I was thinking of when I posted... I knew you'd show up! So, what is the pixel count on that wall-o-DLPs?
