I just got a laptop with 1600 by 1200 resolution. Which means I can now 1 table with no overlap =D.

I HAVE TWO LAPTOPS! I NEED TWO LAPS!
That is all.
Who else has 1600 by 1200 screens and wants to brag about it. WOO!!!

And I thought I was cool with my 1280x800 widescreen laptop. I'm still overlapping!

What a loser I am.

I see, so it's like 800mhz right? I'd love one of those, since I'd only use my laptop for poker pretty much..maybe a movie now and then.

640x480 at the moment (not even joking, my graphics driver failed).

Normally I'm only at a mere 1024x768 though.

One tabling is a full screen game for me right now.

Thankfully, I'm getting it fixed in a couple of hours.

I am (still) looking of a lappy to buy and to my disappointment most of the laptops sold are running mere XGA=1024*768. I think that 1400*1050 is enough for multitabling, or how bad is the overlap??

Do the other eurotrash players have any recommendations which lappy to buy..

What's wrong with your graphics driver? I might be able to help. (I work for one of the well-known graphics card companies ... writing drivers. )

Question for you guys: Is the Max. screen resolution a product of the Video Card or the monitor. I have a dual monitor setup here at work, but I can't play here (It very helpful to have FTR up in one window and work in another). At home I just have a 17' monitor and at the max setting I still have some overlap playing 2 tables. 3 tables is not practical because the overlap is too great (I don't have the setting right now I am at work). So should I get a bigger monitor, or a better monitor, or a better video card, or a combination. I think I could play 3 tables if I didn't have the bad overlap, but now its too difficult.

Thanks

Both the video card and the monitor must support a resolution (and/or refresh rate) to properly display it.

I haven't even got to the hi-graphic games yet -- too busy building my BR. But I'm looking forward to a buddy installing wireless so we can play networked games while sitting in the same room.
