What all monitors do you have running?

For this poll, I have two monitors. They're both mixed. Usually, my notebook is a primary widescreen at 16:9 while my other is at 4:3. I'm talking all kinds of monitors with screen ratios here. What's yours?

I have my laptop and my TV (which doubles as a monitor sometimes for me), both widescreen.

16:10 24" gateway HD monitor running at 1920*1200

it's nice, since it also has component inputs as well :3

oh and I also have an old CRT that has a max res of 1280*1024... 17" I think

it's my backup, I'm not using it at the moment

I use a Gateway 2000 "Vivitron" which I bought used at some now defunct shop across from an eventually also defunct Compusa, because the display imploded on my last monitor. This one lately exhibits horizontal artifacts beside high contrast areas, but I'm cheap enough to have ignored them for a year. The resolution is 1024x768 most of the time, but I can turn that all the way up to 1280x1024 if the need arises, though anything which actually uses the space is likely to be more than my processor can process.

I didn't think to count my TV when I voted. Well, i'm old-school all the way. Using an old (but good) IBM C92 CRT-monitor and then my even older 28" Grundig television set.

One on this PC, a 21" LCD (16:10) and another on a different PC, a 17" CRT (4:3).

1 x CRT 19"
1 x LCD 17"
2 x CRT 15"
2 x TV

used by different PC and Laptops.

2 x 15" widescreen Laptops
1 x 9" Laptop
2 x PCs

Well. I think this is more than enough. But I may buy another LCD or two for my company PC.

And BTW, it's okay to use a TV as an external monitor, at least mine does have an s-video.

Actually I can just hook VGA up to my HD set, so it pretty much IS a monitor then.

And only the latest flat-screen TV's would no doubt have the VGA and s-video ports, I'm really looking to get one of those soon. If I do, I'll make sure the TV is ready for something like THIS!
