My 17" Samsungs are the LM1770, but they aren´t good for dual purposes.

I´m afraid there aren´t any 17" Samsungs whith a slim frame. What about two 18" 181T displays?

The industry is just about to release some new monitors which claim to have the 1600x1200 resolution as their native resolution. I´m thinking of some Sonys. But unfortunately I´ve already tested them and they didn´t keep up whith the Samsungs, they were darker and didn´t have the clearness and contrast, althought their specs claimed to have a 700:1 contrast and 260cd candela. Also the 16ms responstime is nothing but marketing hype and are false numbers. Maybe NEC has some 17" displays that suit your needs. According to some online reviews they cut quite well, but I´ve never seen one in reality...

NEC is my suggestion - shallow, narrow edge, good looks, very good

Two more to have a look at: Belinea 101730 (Samsung panel) and ADI Microscan A715 (fast!).

I decided to go with my initial impression, and ordered two Samsung 191T's. Extravagant, but hopefully my Sony 21" will sell for a good price, and I won't be having to pay out too much extra...

I'll let you know how they are, when they arrive.

Very exiting John, I'm looking forward to see what is the impression of having two monitors instead of one... Most proffesionasl tell it's better two smaller than one big.

hey,

I've used this one a bit, its nice, slim and shiny. crisp picture. my friend is a programmer, hes got this one and i never heard him complain. its a god choice!

AAAAAAaaaaaaaauuugh!!

Exactly Paul... and Wouuuuj to! They look real handy John. Let us know what is your impression of going from one monitor to two... it's interesting...

Ahh Portrait mode. I like that a lot I had it for a short while, before I sold a mistakingly bought PC to my little brother (the PC was ok, I just lost the reason to buy it).
