Say Hello To My "Little" Friends...
Well, I have the twin Dell 20.1" LCDs set up, and man are they nice monitors! 
Right now I have the one on the left hooked up to the analog port on my video card, and the one on the right is hooked up to the digital (DVI) port. What's funny is that the monitor connected to the analog port has better colour accuracy right out of the box - the white is really white, while the whites on the DVI-connected monitor are a bit yellow. I'm worry about this yet, as I'm waiting for a dual DVI video card to be released, after which I'll burn down my system and re-image everything (hopefully around the time for SP2), and calibrate the monitor colour at the same time. Initial impressions of the Dell monitors? "Holy crap those are big!" would be the first impression. Assembly was easy, lots of ports, amazingly bright and the 1600 x 1200 resolution gives me so much screen space it's scary.
Each monitor comes with two USB ports, but they're on the side of the monitor so unless I want to have cords dangling down (which I don't) they seem like a waste of space. I'd much rather have seen them in the back on the base, so it would be easier to wire up accessories. Overall I'm very pleased with them so far and wou!d give them a hearty recommendation to anyone. :way to go:
