This is a good point, I was waiting for this to see your monitor stand setup you had previously placed on youtube. Will be upgrading a few things in a couple of months, would be handy to see what others are doing.

I did send the Videos to Peter some time ago but they don't seem to have been added at all?????

I will try and get a post done on the setup sometime this week.

Cheers Andy, I agree a technology section would be a great addition for people to see what full timers are using. I'm sure there must be quite a few people on the forums with some cool setups.

Hi Gutuami
The monitors I use are Samsung 2243BW and the matrox graphics card runs them at 3 * 1280x800 60 Hz I think...

I would highly recommend the Samsung 23" screens I got. They cost £150 and have a massive resolution of 2048 x 1152. It is a slightly odd resolution, as they are not as tall as 'normal' but wider, but was exactly what I wanted

I got mine here: http://www.lambda-tek.com/componentshop ... ID=1700040

Andy, do you still have the 2x23" and 2X19" setup?

I don't know whether to get the same or 1x23" and 3x19", or whatever.

Yeah I still have that setup and wont be changing it as it is exactly what I want - I started buying just one 23" but liked it so much I got another one a few days later :)

What suits will come down to personal preference and screen layout I guess.
