I prefer it set at 1024x768, but sometimes the graphics card get screwed up and won't display anything higher than 800x600. I hate that resolution, but sometimes there is nothing I can do.

1024x768, though at work I use 1152 x 864, sacrificing readability for pixel real estate.

I have a 19 inch .22 view sonic monitor. I run 800x600 on open gl and I have a ge 4 so would it matter if I go any higher? Anyway my laptop is at 800x600 but my seksay pc is at 1024x something although my settings always change because my lovely sister likes to use my puter rather than her own puter hehe. ***Holds his fist up*** joo better scandisk and defrag my puter or else imma swift kick you in the head!!! Yep, gotta love her She loves my computer so much omg... ... she like...downloads so much stuff its amazing and when I come home from college I always see her sitting on my study chair. Man that's my chair! The pimps chair! Good stuff. I just hope she doesn't change my textures to pink with some girly flowers or some sort of crap cuz if she did that I'd probably freak Knowing her she will probably have something planned hehe.

I feel like...going up there and like...telling them to pls stfu so I can sleep Or I can put on a wig, pretend I'm a chick and like omg...like blend in with them and talk valley BS all day!!! Woot!!! Ahh the dorm life, these friggin walls are paper thin so I can clearly hear everyone's conversation and the network sucks like a two dolla hoe on crack Oh well. Good stuff.

1024 - 768 at home... so most of my posts where i use a lot of emoticons look small n stuff.

but in school all the monitors are set to 800 - 600... and omg.. i gotta scroll milz n milz on some stuff.. lol

i used to use 800-600 at home untill about 3 months ago.... when i had so many icons on my desktop they were goin of the screen. so i changed the res to 1024-768 and im used to it now. i think its tonns better.

this is so weird cos im in school. and the network is set up to prevent us from changin settins. so i gotta use the monitors at 800-600 .... the damn start buttons n that are huge... lol.
