I would think for art it might be usefull as you can have menus, pallets, brushes, toolbars and junk on a side of the screen and the more paper shaped screen in full view for working on, but that depends on the layout of the software etc.

I gather some games don't like 1440 x 900 but again not a problem for the OP, also others have hacked the game configs to make use of the widescreen layout, more details of weapons / health etc on a side of the screen.

I also have the screen that homealone has and think it great.
I do like the bigger resolution for working in art packages but I'm mainly looking to get a CLEARER picture at the end of the day and I want to use a local firm who have given me excellent service in the past.I merely was asking for some help with making sense of the science.Which I got.Thank you all very much indeed.

As it is I'm having a grief off hubby for doing this as the old monitor ISN'T broken so he's been no help despite the fact he's been repairing flat screen monitors for years.
