    2 big monitors or 3 smaller ones, what's better?

    What do you think is better for webmasters to have, two big screens (say 24") or three smaller monitors (say 2 normal 19" and 1 widescreen 22", or 3x19")?

    Personally, I think 3 is the sweet spot for an active webmaster.

          I used to say the same thing until I got a second monitor per computer.

                                          I have two 19" dell LCD's and I think that's enough.. Then again I'm sure I could get use to three. I just wish the LCD's had no space between them.

                                          I think if I used 3 I'd turn them on their sides so the height matched up wirh the width better.

                                                  yeah I use one, but if you are splashing out on monitors, I would buy the two widescreens!

                                                          I have two, and I would rather add a third than make them bigger. Then I could stick chat windows, mail, and all that other stuff off by itself.

                                                                                              Im used to having two monitors, usually around 19" or 20" and could never go back to only 1 of that size.

                                                                                              But, I have two 24" Dell flatpanels at home and its almost too much... could easily get by with just one. If I have smaller display's two is enough:P
