What screen resoloution do you use?

[Aenygma]

Altho I have pretty good system (see below) I am still in the dark ages b/c I use 800X600. @85hz

I like 1024, but it's just too damn small for me (I have a 17" monitor", and sit back when I type.) and I really rather strain my eyes, and then need glasses.. Yet, 800 is sooo big. I wish they has one in-between.

Now, for gaming and what not, I def prefer 1028, but for daily browsing, and IRC I need 800.

how do you like that on the 17" monitor? i've tried it before on mine-- however i just cant' get used too it. i use 1152 on my 17"

 

[Aenygma]

Well, they say you should be at least 4' from the monitor.

I just changed to large fonts.. it helped a little.. but still to thin and small.. *sigh*

I need a bigger monitor. lol.

I was running 1920x1440, but the 72Hz refresh was hurting my eyes. I've dropped down to 1600x1200
