1280x1024 at 75Hz on my SONY Trinitron 21" CRT monitor, 1156x864 at 75Hz on my NEC 17" CRT monitor, I don't use LCD, CRTs give me the best result.

1600x1200.


I love the clarity, and the ability to multitask with the small resolution.

I've an old 21" monitor that really likes 1152 x 864 at 85 Hz for some reason.

I'd like a new monitor soon since this one's black color looks too green, especially if it hasn't warmed up.

My laptop is a 15.4" screen. I had intended to get a 17" screen, but once I saw how long it took to move the mouse across it using the mouse pad, I decided it was just too big.

Work PC has main 20" tube running 1152x864, plus two 17" monitors on either side running 1024x768. All screens flow one to another, just swing mouse from one to another.

I'm blind. I have to use 800 x 600 on a 17" monitor.

I really need to get a 21" so that I can go to 1024 x 768.

Can somebody tell me how they can actually see a 1600 x 1200 resolution? Is the monitor 30????
