Ok, i get paid tommorow, and am going to buy my new monitor. I had decided on a Hanns-G HW191 19" Widescreen TFT to replace my cruddy 17" CRT, but now ive got cold feet.
The guy at work behind me has just grabbed a spare Dell 17" 4:3 TFt at 1280x1024 and it looks really nice. Im replacing my 17" CRT that i run at 1280x1024. the Hanns-G is 1440x900.
id love a widescreen, much nicer to use and more viewing for games and movies (ive fallen in love with the 20" widescreen white computer like thingy our graphic designer has, shame about the OS
), but im now a little worried about losing 124 pixels in height, which is actualy quite a bit. Do i take the plunge and just go with my instinct and get the Hanns-G, or do i chicken out, and go for the safe like for like replacement and get a 17" 4:3?
basicaly, do i replace my 1280x1024 with another 1280x1024 or 1440x900?
Cheers
