You could shrink 4 tables into a 1280x1024 area and see how it looks. I would do it and take a screen shot but I gotta go soon.

Or you could shrink one to 640x512 and see how that looks

Meh. I used to play with two 19 inch LCDS until I got my laptop. Worked fine with multitabling especiably resizable poker rooms. Overlap on non-adjustable sites wasn't a huge deal to me, I'm not high maintenance like the other queens here.

Now I have a laptop 17" laptop that can display 6 screens with no overlap and a 19" LCD that can do 4 with some. I usually onlyt play 3 tables though as I'm trying to concentrate more on poker instead of nit camping.

I think you should just do what works best with you. It's really a matter of whether you're willing to pay the extra bucks for the bigger screen if that's what you need, or if you can suck it up and use a little overlap or just use adjustable screens which party has now. Adjustable screens work great with HUDs until you get 7+ on one screen.

There, a serious post just for you, V. I only do this once in a blue moon.

If you use PAHUD, you can't resize the tables because PAHUD doesn't adjust to the resized tables and it looks really messed up.

I have a 17" crt as my 2nd monitor for the time being, yes i know i suck..

It runs 1280x1024 and with resizing I don't have any problems running 4 tables on it..

I don't think you'll have any problems with a 19" vrs a 20" LCD but the only hitch would be if you decide to move to a poker room that doesn't resize such as poker room or prima.
