Desktop:
HP LP2475W
24", 1920x1200 (16:10)
Non-glossy 102% gamut H-IPS Panel
6ms response, 1000:1 contrast
2x DVI-I, HDMI, DisplayPort, Component, Composite, S-Video

Laptop:
Thinkpad Z60t
14", 1280x768 (15:9...

)
Non-glossy TN panel

Both are calibrated to 2.2 gamma @ 6500K and the HP is at 120 cd/m^2 brightness. That translates to 19/100.

I guess 1280x800 is just a smallish laptop?



fraseyboy, I'm guessing that sis is running at 1024 x 600. My Samsung NC10 (which I totally dig, by the way), runs 1024x600 on a 10.2" display.

I use that same HP model in my home office.

I have an older Dell 2405FPW 24" display on my desk at my office office that also runs 1920x1200. It's not as nice as the HP, but it continues to serve me well.

I use both with my Macbook Pro 17" (late 2008 model), and occasionally with my Samsung netbook.

Poll Results = Adam, you need a new monitor...



Thanks, you're right. All you guys have wide screen displays.

On another matter. - This might be interesting for some of you:
Trends — Monitors and Screen Resolution

From the above link:

Quote:

[size=xx-large]Web Design and Screen Resolution [/size]
During the early days of the Web, we designed for a resolution of 640x480. As technology and color representation improved, the standard moved to 800x600, and many monitors are still shipped preset to this resolution.

Web designers are gradually starting to design for a resolution of 1024x768
because a growing majority of Internet users can handle that resolution and more.
[size=large]This Web site is designed for 1024x768[/size],
and Buildtelligence is deliberately moving slowly towards
[size=large]this new standard[/size].


Yet another link: Web Design Standards

From the above link: Quote:

The indusrty standard is 1024 x 768.



My Inane (by definition, because they're mine) questions:

1. What is the Head-Fi.org's (default) resolution by design?

2. Is the current internet standard really [size=large]1024x768[/size]?

See also this s'il vous plait.

Same here, except I have calibrated it using my monitors native color temperature (best black depth and contrast that way) since I dont do any graphics editing and such, I'm a gamer but a demanding one. Gamma 2.2 and luminance varies from 120 to 140cdm2 depending in ambient lighting.

Kickass monitor.

I do not have a 17" screen but two such things! Thus having a resolution of 2560×1024. All I can say it's very useful and IMO beats a single 1920x1080 screen any day. [size=xx-small]Except when watching movies.[/size]

I am not one of those who like to waste their screen space and surf with a full-screen browser. My window is usually about 1024×768, sometimes I fullscreen it. Perhaps then when I buy a third display.

I have a couple 24" monitors, each at 1920x1200. One's better for photo (MVA), the other for gaming (TN)... although, I pretty much do everything on the MVA, as I don't really notice a difference in refresh time, and the colors are far, far better.
