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.

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?

Same computer. Kinda simple. You just need the right graficcard. And Drivers.
By the way i use the highest resolution in WA. Dont know whats that is but i use it :D

You can do that triple monitor stuff with some Matrox graphics cards i think... and i think ATI is planning this feature for some of their graphics cards too, its great for stuff like racing games or flight simulators because you have a big field of view :).
