Yeah I saw that one also, but going from 19 to 20 inches, they wanted ~$200 more so I did not think it was worth the extra $$$ for only one inch more.


.;is not only 1 inche but also the resolution 20.1 1600x1200 any 19'' 1280x1024

Yeah I know, but I had a budget I was trying to hold to (<$500). I like this monitor. Much better than my old CTX 17" that I've had since 1997.

Thanks for the link. Do you mean "had" or "have"? If you still have it forsale, I would be intrested.

EGO: I went to Dell's site, and they have a link that checks your compatability to run wide screen, and my card was not listed. I was looking at this wide screen model for just under $500:
http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/cate ... l=en&s=dhs

Then if you click on this link:
javascript :w inopen('http://www1.us.dell.com/content/learnmo ... T=0,TOP=20');
My Redeon 9600 pro is not listed, but it's listed for notebook pc's. What's the difference?
:p

widescreen isn't a monitor style - its a video display mode, ego, some TV's have widescreen MODE and some Don't have Widescreen MODE - which is 50mm camera by 170% radial display mode and spread across the screen in a funny shape. So some cards have the mode - and some fancier cards Do NOT have the mode.
