17"

Anything larger wouldn't fit my desk. I did however use a flat 15" CRT for 6 years. I only upgraded because that one was dying.

17”

And I just moved from 15” to 17” about a year ago.

Recently, I almost went to 19”, but decided I wanted to have my two monitors to match. I like my stuff to look good and the last thing I wanted on my desk was two monitors that were different colors.

17” is big enough. My next buy will be an LCD projector. Those usually have the ability to put out a picture larger than you can accommodate.

Ohh...and I still use a 15".

19"

I use a 19".

After using the 19" for so long, a 17" seems too small to me now. LOL

I've got one 17" right now, but I am considering going dual, if I can find enough space on my desk.

19" CTX that I've had for 4.5 years. Cost something like $500+. I cringe thinking of what that could buy me now.

Monitor size

Thought I'd turn it into a poll, by request. Never seen one for this so thought it'd be a good idea.

So let's see what you use (primarily).

21" for me.
