I just got a 22" widescreen monitor and at 1680x1050... I had to work to find something that looks great. I ended up with this.
I'm so happy with my new monitor. up until this point all I have ever had was this pos 15" crt. This 22" wide blows it a-fucking-way.
Never had a CRT, always had laptops, first desktop had LCD. All 4:3 though, first widescreen one. Couldn't believe how much better it is. Gone up in size quite evenly...15>17>19>22...
My buddy sold me his 22" Samsung for $200 which is a great deal... he only had it for like three months before he decided to upgrade to 24". He got a HP 24" with glossy screen. Looks fucking sick.
That is fucking awesome... too bright for my tastes though. I just changed mine to this: In honor of the most beautiful woman in the world. She deserves to be rendered in 1680x1050 pixels.
i was wondering the same thing also if you are interested... i have used this for over a year... www.rocketdock.com edit: try here http://vista.gallery.microsoft.com/vista/SideBar.aspx?mkt=en-us
Yeah, what most people don't expect is that the Vista toolbar is actually very costumizable. XD I didn't use mine for a long time, then I played around with it and found some nifty gadges. Now I've grown tired of it again. 8D
So I got bored of the previous wallpaper and changed it to this (<3 Portal) and added the dock (click to enlarge)... [tIMG=640]http://i36.tinypic.com/2wc1639.png[/tIMG]
Yeah, you know... I just went back to Windows XP Theme just to see why I ever changed it to Classic in the first place... and I almost instantly realized, "Why the fuck would anyone use this shitty looking theme?" I have used Classic theme for as long as I can remember. And before that I used Windows '98. So yeah...
