    Can you get used to the smaller fonts with the higher native resolution? I am older and notice I have to work hard on the smaller fonts. Most trading software is not compatile with the larger fonts.

    Thanks for answering.

    i have no issues with the smaller fonts. i know some traders initially found it difficult to adjust but eventually did.

  3. Samsung has a 21.3 inch for 579 at tigerdirect. That tops Dells 2001fp- an extra 1inch for $10 more? Any opinions on Samsungs Thanks

    from my past experience, samsung has always made the highest quality lcd. usually a lot more expensive though. it will be a lot brighter so that's the original issue that was addressed. the dell 2001fp is $464 currently so its a $100 diff.

    That Samsung 213T is a very, VERY nice monitor. I have Samsung and others (including Dells) 19"ers.... I prefer the Samsung... Dells are too bright even when the brightness is turned down to zero. (I use the Dells in my desktop for trading with the charts in a black background. For that, they are OK. But when viewing photos, they appear overly bright and somewhat washed out.)

    Kowboy, go to Display Properties. Set Font size to 125%. 150%, what have you. Fonts should be readable then.

  8. Can the 1905FP be mounted?

    Is this limited to one per customer?

    This looks like a pretty good deal if can buy a bunch of them and get a multimount stand.

  10. Yes, you just remove the pedestal stand... https://store.ergotron.com/mir/default.aspx,
    and http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=689715#post689715

    No, but: "... the maximum quantity for a given item with online orders is 5 units.

    It is a "pretty good deal" for trading.
