Got a better PC

[hwnd]

Hi Jarrod. Whats even more interesting, it looks like almost my PC.
I used CRT monitor for many years, now i got one used LCD for pretty cheap price. I also wanted to get more space for coding, so i have to scroll less and code more. I worked with 1024x768 for many years (started with 800x600 on Win98, 2-3 years).

Currently max it can support and which i set it to is: 1440x900 pixels.
Of course the bigger the better but so far im satisfied with this. Takes less space on desk and picture is better, old CRT one was getting blurry.
Maybe i will fix it and use as secondary or primary monitor and LCD one as secondary.

Because what i dont like about LCD is that you cant see much from different sides and angles from LCD, you must almost directly to LCD to see actual clear picture. With angles it "fades" away

Its nice that you have XP box now, as you have seen from different reports, it's must have. For debugging and testing.

Yes, its been working really well. I am surprised that stuff actually works accelerated with this Intel graphics card. I guess they have gotten much better with this model. Years ago, I had so many problem with these cards. This monitor is 1280x1024 and very nice to code on. My wide screen monitor on my main dev box is 14480x900 too and I have noticed the difference those few extra pixels can make. I think I may eventually use it in multimonitor setup and it be the coding monitor.

Okay, shall I?
My main desktop PC is an AMD FX-6100 (six core) at 3.3 GHz with 8 GB RAM and 1000 GB HDD. Graphics Card is a AMD Radeon HD 7770 with (only) 1GB of DDR-5 RAM (but fast). Since a few years I own a SAMSUNG display with 24 inch which shows me 1920 x 1080 pixels. Rather nice but somehow I will need a higher resolution soon ...
My laptop is a HP 650 with also 8 HB of RAM and Intel B980 @ 2 x 2.40 GHz and a 500 GB HDD with 1366 x 786 resolution.
And a lot of more in my shop starting from a Intel DualCore @ 2 x 2.2 GHz to a AMD Sempron @ 1.8 GHz to a really nice fanless IGEL Thin client 5/4 with a VIA 1GHZ C7 CPU and 256 MB RAM. I have an external HDD with 320 GB attached and using it as a Haiku-OS desktop. All PCs in my shop have a 4:3 display ranging from 1024 x 768 to 1280 x 1024.
