Yea I know what you mean but I will wait for the next generation of monitors before getting three new matched ones. They will for sure have thinner bezels, be slimmer and look better than what ... |

Some numbers I had think about: Total pixels 3x1920x1080 ... |

| Tamlin - just wanted to confirm something if you dont mind!! :D Your choices will be "stretch horizontally" Is this a span or just a stretch?

Yes it can. Its done through displays manager in CCC. Press f1 for help on the different modes when you have selected displays manager. Your choices will be "stretch horizontally" and "stretch vertically".
Thanks Tamlin  |

Thanks Mergatroid I will check out SoftTH - at first glance it seems I need 2 graphics cards to get it to work? Will definetly have a look although I can sense that I will probably end up binning Vista and going back to XP.
Will my ATI card give H-SPAN in XP? :) |
