    Monitor Queries

    I'm thinking of getting a second screen, I currently have a samsung 930bf syncmaster which is great.

    Thing I've noticed when looking is that 70% of monitors out there seem to be widescreen. So got to ask is it feasible to have a normal 19" and a widescreen 19" working together? I mostly use it for gaming with abit of photo editing and maybe watch the odd DVD.

    What are your suggestions/recommendations?

    (my budget is around the £150 mark)

    very feasable, and would look something like this:



    personally id go for a 22" widescreen to pair with a 19" 4:3, as it will keep the monitor heights closer to each other. and its great for games. but 150 wont allow that

    i run 20" widescreen and 15" 4:3 ...works nicely enough.

    normally just have iTunes running in the 15" etc.. but theres nothing stopping you using both formats.
