Poll: What display resolution do you use?
« on: March 05, 2010, 07:28:53 PM »
Just an informal survey.  I'm interested in knowing what screen resolution our members use.  If you don't see yours listed, post it here.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Wide and short.  Mmm'kay.

I'm still usin' my busted Compaq monitor I got back in 1999.  I'd really like a new one. :(

Yeah... I forgot about laptops.

I just grabbed the ones that showed up on my copy of XP.  I'm not even sure if anyone uses them.

Well, admittedly this monitor looks smaller than most I've seen.

But as usual, I use something until it breaks, and this is still unbroken.

Thats not a bad thing then. You probably don't need to waste any money and time on it anyway. You likely have better things to do than be online all the time. Unlike some of us losers. *sniff* :bawl:

Well, I do have to use the scroll bars, on the bottom of the screen, and the right side of the screen, a lot.  I'd say that's the biggest negative.

But not to worry; when this monitor gives up the ghost, I'll probably upgrade.

But not until then.

Is that a monitor issue? I usually just use the arrow keys to move the page up and down.  I just need to make sure there is no cursor in a message box by clicking elsewhere first.
