    Just added two 23" LG LED Monitors. I miss the 26" LCD/TV I was using before but the added display is well worth the loss of image real estate also the fact that I'm saving over half the power over the one 26" LCD is amazing......they run so much cooler and man are they thin !

    @linnemeyerhere Are you really loosing the screen real estate pixel wise? It seems to me that the LG's would have more pixels than the 26.

    Maxwell,
    You're absolutely correct, but what I miss is getting more of a portrait view with documents and spread sheets. All of these new monitors are ratio'd for wide screen movie presentations and unless the monitors rotate (a great feature) then you actually lose data and either are force to reduce image size or increase screen resolution and if you don't then you find yourself scrolling more to locate data. This is a small price to pay for the enhanced image quality, low power consumption and extra screen for productivity.

    @linnemeyerhere You could always just turn one of the monitors portrait, and get that real estate back. If your monitor base doesn't support it, you can pick up a stand like this.

    Amazon.com: Dual Freestanding Monitor Stand holds monitors up to 24" widescreen. Uses standard Vesa mount.: Office Products

    or this

    For only $33.60 each when QTY 50+ purchased - 3-Way Adjustable Tilting DUAL Desk Mount Bracket for LCD LED (Max 33Lbs, 13~23inch) - Black | LCD Desk Mount Brackets

    I'm going to be picking up one of the second ones soon anyway purely for looks.

    Setan,
    Man my heart goes out to you. That an amazing rig you assembled. Such attention and care given even to the back wiring is a sign of a very fastidious mind. Head up and in no time you'll be setting up a new system even nicer.
