    pc with 2dual 17" monitors its a compaq

    use my laptop mostly these days Dell 9300 17" screen with 1920x1600 pixel resolution.

    I dont multi table more than two tables at 5/10 or higher so I dont have as much need for screen space as some.

    I've go a 20" monitor connected to my Laptop. I can 4 table (although 3 is usually the most I have open) without overlap. I could also use my laptop screen as a seperate monitor but I don't usually unless it's to have a browser or something open.

    I recently connected my laptop up to my new TV, so I can now play poker on my comfortable arm chair!

    You need one with two monitor outputs but it doesn't have to be expensive - I got one for about e60 from komplett.ie.

    My setup is a 19" CRT and a 17" LCD hooked up to my desktop. I don't usually play at 4 tables anymore but it is useful to have pokertracker/itunes/msn visible on another screen while I'm playing.

    When I feel like roleplaying I put on a paddypower hat and EPT tshirt and a set of funky sunglasses sit infront of my pokertable riffling some chips and play on a 12' projector screen and lose loads cause I can't see the screen with the glasses on and can't feel my arms cause the tshirt is so tight :rolleyes:

    Just bought a 20" LCD off Komplett to facilitate the multi-tabling. overlapping and ALT+TAB is getting far too annoying.
