Does width count

I have a brand new laptop that I don't have to share with ANYbody... mine, mine, mine.... so I don't care how big it is -- but, how do you measure a computer screen... side to side, on the diagonal, what?

17" and it's big enough.

Seems like a lotta of you women prefer an extra three inches!

Mine's a 20" widescreen. Love it. Our (the wife's

) laptop has a 14" widescreen on it.

I went from a 17" CRT monitor to the 20". It was like seeing for the first time.

15" on my powerbook
17" on both PC's at home, no flat screens

it's the girth that matters...

That said, at home I have a 15" LCD (which is just fine for the space we have to keep it).

At work I have Bertha, the 22" old-school mongo screen. I work on a lot of documents and web sites at work and the bigger screen let's me see what pages will look like from everyone else's perspective so I know when I design pages they'll look good for everyone.

Hee hee

Here, I'll make you feel better...

There's a 17" laptop in the kitchen, a 17" flat panel all in one hooked up to my embroidery machine, my new laptop, the two main computers in the computer room with the 21" widescreens, and a 17" flat panel hooked to a terabyte machine that does nothing but download and do backups from the rest of the machines.

That should make you feel farrr less frivolous.

I can only see the top half of the tv screen if I'm sitting up in bed with it on my lap. It seriously looks like I might as well have a desktop sitting on top of me.
