22" Monitor that will work Portrait

GhostlyPea · 11 Jan 2009 at 18:57

Anybody got any recommendations? Just needs to be able to be turned to portrait mode. Does not need amazing colour properties and I don't want glossy.All it will be used for is having applications open on (i.e. MSN, WinAmp and web pages, maybe other applications etc.) So not for gaming or anything, so it does not need gaming specs or anything.

Thanks

There are a few dell models that do that, I know my brothers dell 22" could twist the monitor 90 degrees, not soo sure about how to get the graphics settings to view it that way though

If using an nvidia card, then you can rotate the screen using hotkeys - ctrl-alt-arrows iirc.

wonder how to do it in an ati card since my next gfx card wil be an ati

My HP w2228h does, only problem is it's glossy. Good monitor though.

This also works on intel cards if you're using integrated graphics. The amount of people who have accidently done this at my workplace is staggering, at least until we disabled hotkeys.
