I just bought an 22" flat screen crt monitor and it feels like im watching TV!! I really like it, less scrolling, but just wondering how big everyone else's monitors are.

I've got a 19" CRT and a 17" LCD
Firefox: no, its not the end all solution, it has its own issues and in time it will be just as insecure as IE, when its hit Firefox 6, if it makes it that far. Oh, and AOL pays for it, incase you didn't know.

Microsoft & Windows: If you hate it so much, move to linux, or bsd, or anything else, stop complaning and move on.

Two side-by-site 19" LCD's. I really like having the extra space to move something over into.

If I dual monitors, the edging of the monitors would bother me. seems the dual 19" LCD's are popular these days.

I´ve got a 25¨ Nanao but quit using it because it took so much desk space. Can´t afford an LCD that size so I just split my work into five computers around my desk - feels sort of like a space capsule in here, sort of. Would sure like to have one of those dual screen jobs, though...

what´s the best setup overall? That is, if you were going out to purchase something...

Currently using a 21" CRT for my work PC and a 17" CRT for my games rig. I plan sometime soon to get a 19" LCD for the work rig and use it in tandem with the 17"CRT. The big CRT will be better suited to the gaming rig.

About 20~ inches depending on the maker.
