Re: I've got a Whopper!!!
Mine is only 17 inch...but for me...it's big enough 
Hey, there's an idea, why don't you buy a bigger chair
to increase the distance between your eyes and your
humongeous 21 inch screen
Anyway, congratulations on your new computer screen

Re: I've got a Whopper!!!
I run two 17" monitors. Couldn't go back to a single one now.

24" widescreen imac. You soon get used to the size.
Personally I'd love a 30" apple cinema display or maybe two...when I'm a millionaire perhaps.

Re: I've got a Whopper!!!
I took the monitor back today as it hurt my eyes. I opted for a smaller one, 19 inch.
I think it was the quality of the picture too that put me off. This one just suits me fine.
Afterall, it's not the size, it's how you use it

Re: I've got a Whopper!!!
I've got two monitors, too (one for dial-in work, one for internet).
I thought it was the bee's knees till I saw a documentary on Bill Gates which showed him in his office and he had THREE monitors. Wish I had a need for three...

Re: I've got a Whopper!!!
As a developer, I couldn't do without 2 now. At least with one screen, and tabs, as IPom says, you can switch out without the Missus/boss seeing.
I'm so used to it now that I find myself doing the switch-out reflex even when I'm not on BE...it's like a nervous twitch.
