I use  Sony 19" and my resolution is same as Ray. And yes you'll get used to that.

But notice almost all the monitors these days are 'wide' and 1280 x 1024 is for non-wide monitors. If you monitor is wide, You probably should try 1600 x 1200.

Anyway I always like the biggest resolution so that I could see most part of the map possible.
Due to massive misunderstandings: MonkeyIsland refers to an island not a monkey. I would be a monkey, if my name was IslandMonkey meaning a monkey who is or lives on an island. MonkeyIsland is an island which is related to monkeys. Also there's been a legend around saying MonkeyIsland is a game. So please, think of me as an island or a game.

Same here.

By the way Monkey, 1600*1200 is for 4:3 monitors, like 800*600, the wide monitors are 16:9 and the resolutions for that are like 1280*720 (as far as I know).

Just go with 1920x1200, it took me some time to get used to 1920x1080 but it's worth it. ;)
Remember that playing in native resolutions gives you best quality. :>

19", I keep it @ 1440x900, even in-game, and it`s pretty good. Great for movies too.

Do you use those two monitors with two different PCs or do they run from the same computer? If so, how can you manage that?

why not ?

@ Ray : MihaiS from sW clan uses 3 monitors connected to 1 central unit. I`m not sure how he does it, though.

@ Pixy : lol`.
