I finally got sick of overlapping poker tables today so i went down to staples, got 2 cheap 19" monitors 1600X1200 compatible with new video card. Total cost 550.
Working great and ready to rock and roll.

I used to run 2 19" CRT's, eventually I had to choose between getting rid of one or slicing my wrists open with a dull spoon.

Nice Soupie, I just purchased a 17" LCD monitor and 17" LCD TV that I plan on running dual on my new computer. I also use a 20" CRT on my second computer. Now if only I had a desk instead of these stupid TV trays...
(really, I'm using 4 TV trays in my office space right now...)

Ty's not kidding. I've seen it. It looks like a ghetto mission control.

I'm still in the contemplating mode....I am considering the 24" LCD Panel along with a 30" LCD TV/Monitor. However I already have a 19" LCD so a consideration would be a second 19" LCD and do the dual monitor thing as well....so my 1.5 year old LCD doesn't just sit there unused.
I will be eager to hear how you like the dual setup soupie....and congrats again on getting it working properly - sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

Have used multiple monitors for years: Trading Futures & Options; Office Application Development; and now with poker. If I had room on my desk, I would figure a way to get a few more. They're kinda like dollars: how much is enough? Just a few more...
