I've been using a 19" LCD for at least two years and maybe 3. I love it. Mine is a square 19" though... I'm not sure how I'd do with a widescreen.

Take that x2, one to game on and one for tv/music browsing, web whatever.

Or you can do what I did for a while 1 22 wide with a 19" 4x3 as it's the same size vertically. Once you go dual you won't go back.

Weak. Just wait when I get a flat panel HD TV hooked up to this box as part of my media center project. :)

226BW is 1000:1 not unless you are on Nyte's painkillers.
