Well I won't post a screenshot (because I don't know how) but I have a 20.1" and I can fit 4 games on the screen with no overlap, or two tournaments and lobbies for both. Or I can have a tournament a lobby and my XM window open.........

I love it! Its the best thing since poker on the internet. I finally have the ability to use windows as opposed to window.

Really?

I also have a 20.1 (the 21 inchers use the same resolution 1680X1050), and can't fit 4 games on with no vertical overlap (P*/PR).

I love my screen, but if your goal is maximum multi-tabling and you have the cash, go with the 24".

EDIT: I have the Viewsonic VX2025 - best 20/21" WS out there IMO (and great $$).

have a 20.1 and the 24 is on the way (dell I presume? that's what I have). The thing I really don't like about the 20 and why I'm getting the 24 is that it only goes up to 1680x1050 while the 24 will do 1900x1200. Makes a lot of di fference.

Here's a somewhat related question. Anyone multi-monitor with widescreen monitors? Can you do multi-monitors in widescreen resolutions?

My screen is 1600/1200 (I guess its not really a widescreen, its a samsung 213T) and here is a screen shot of P* since I think thats what you use most.
