Just a bit of fun - what size screen do you regularly use?

I use a 15" XGA (1024x768) or a 19" SXGA (1280x1024) mostly, & occasionally an 11.6" WXGA (1366x768) or a 12" XGA (1024x768).

Frankly I have a hard time remembering all those acronyms and just refer to the resolution/size...

I mostly use a 1680x1050px 20" monitor.

Its resolution is too high to use old bitmap fonts, but too low to use the newest vector fonts. Open Sans, Noto etc. don't look so good at small sizes, but are too large for my monitor at acceptable sizes. Slightly older fonts work best - and the DejaVu family, I realized just today.
Viewing distance is 80-90cm.
Otherwise I'm just happy with it, it's in good shape for being ~10 yo, and while I thought about it many times I never saw a pressing reason to replace it.

Dell u27. Ain't lookin back!

Above is my not-to-scale layout of 6 displays. The 2560x1440 & 1400x1050 are actually to my left, with the 1680x1050 filling the space between the ends of the 2560x1440 and the left 1920x1200. Any laptop I need to use gets placed to the left of the keyboard in front of the left stack. The right upper displays actually sit (one at a time) slightly behind the 1680x1050, elevated on their own stands for easy switching. The other 5 average the same viewing distance as each other. Those not marked 24/7 are for roughly 30 multiboot PCs that are used part-time, as needed. OS/2 runs on the 1400x1050 display. This Linux runs on the other 24/7 display. There's also a 32" 1920x1080 TV forward of my right at about 8' distance that is also used on occasion. I can have 8 displays in use at once using 4 PCs with dedicated keyboards and rodents.

To answer the main question: a 24" 1920x1200 gets the most use.

I use a 19 inch 1280×1024 from Hannsspree.

It can pivot, giving me a choice of landscape or portrait modes. After a lot of searching, I finally worked out how to alter the display with a hot-key command:

My main computer has a 32 inch 2560x1440 centered and recently bought. On its left lies my 10 year old 23 inch 1920x1080 which is usually off by the power button and use only when needed.
Two 15 inch laptops, 1920x1080 and 1366x768, I usually work on the second.
Another two monitors, sometimes attached, sometimes not (on my old desktop or my old laptop). A 19 inch 1366x768 and a 5:4 19 inch 1280x1024. This last one is great for browser use, not for videos.

Dual FHD 24" on my desktop. On my docking station, single ultra-wide 2560x1080 29".

I use a couple of 1280 x 1024 19" HP screens. Both fed from an Nvidia Quadro 600 which came with my second hand HP Z400 Workstation.

32 inch 2560x1440 for our general use computer. Have a 4K monitor for my workstation. Of course laptop is limited to full HD resolution. No displays on the servers or raspberry pis....

3x 24" AOC E2460S connected via 2 DVI and 1 Display Port to an old MSi GeForce GTX 1070 Ti. Also connected -but not present in picture, since that would be...wrong- is a 32" crappy old tv, courtesy of HDMI.


Not sure why the picture looks so retarded. Since I can't be bothered with it, the phone usually takes care of any and all photographic "needs" almost by itself, and with flying colors. Oh well, You will just have to help it out some, and imagine that they are of the appropriate shape, size and roughly to scale.

Quiet good, isn't it!

It? You mean the Z400 workstation? Yup! its very good. Just what I needed for designing stuff with FreeCAD, slicing and printing on my 3D printer. I haven't had to wait for any solid models to be rendered in the main, usually done in seconds.

Very happy with it, cost just shy of £300.00 from a broker.

I used to use VGA (640x480) with 17" CRT monitor on desktop for a long time; and then after I changed to 23" LCD monitor, I ran that via DVI at WVGA (848x480) for some time.

Nowadays, I mosty use WXGA (1366x768) on my laptop's 14" LCD screen; and mostly HD-ready (1280x720) or occasionally full-HD (1920x1080) on VGA-connected 23" IPS LCD monitor.

P.S. When I needed less-distraction writing environment, I usually switch my laptop to text mode console-- which runs at VGA text mode (720x400) resolution.

My work and personal laptops are both windows and I use 2 BenQ PD2700Q monitors (27" IPS - 2560x1440 QHD) in addition to the 15.6" laptop display. When using my personal laptop there's usually also an XP-Pen Artist 15.6" (1920x1080) Pro attached.
