Basically for Stars and Party, 1 monitor that does 1600x1200 is enough cause u can resize the tables. Also its supposedly coming for Full Tilt but it could take some time. You can't resize UB tables only the miniview.

I got two 1600x1200 screens myself but only use 1 now cause I play on party..

I have a Samsung Syncmaster 204b. Its ~20inch at 1600x1200 resolution. Holds 4 tables perfectly. cost about 325.

Also i have second monitor hooked up to my computer which is my old one and only 19 inches at 1280X1024. You can get a video card that supports dual monitor for under 100 bucks and instally it pretty easily and use your old monitor as well as the new one.

Dual monitor is great because you can have 4 tables on one screen and have a webrowser and aim, etc on the other one.

Here is my setup with the samsung in the middle. My laptop is on the stand to the left and i dont really use it.

I think 20" monitors that have 1600X1200 are a must for multi-tabling.

Sure you can re-size on alot of sites, but then you have to see the cards. BIgger cards/bigger action buttons === much easier playing, much less eye strain and longer and hopefully more profitable sessions.

I currently have 2 dell 20.1" flat planels (2001 and 2007), not the wide screens you'll need a 24" if you want wide. 2 20" at 1600X1200 is what I recommend to everyone that asks, I'm sure the brands don't really matter.

Also get a nice Laser mouse, also makes a difference.

What about the 1900x whatever ones? 1600x1200 is enough for 4 full size (non tribecca) tables? No overlap?

1600x1200 is enough to fit 4 full size pokerstars/party tables on.

My laptop is 1900x1200 which is enough to fit 4 tables with a bit of space left over - or if you prefer (as i do) you can have 6 smaller tables on a site that allows re-sizing, they aren't too much smaller and it's still easy to see everything you need to.
Poker is silly.

It is not enough to be good at chess, you must also play well.

Somewhere in the world someone is training when you are not. When you race him, he will win.

Sweet...you're right! Now I can stop looking for 1900x1200!! Why would people want them anyway, since they're so much more expensive and you can fit 4 on 1600x1200 no prob?
