Got myself a TH2GO digital and need to choose my 3 screens. Seems widescreen 22"'s are the most popular but I'm thinking 4:3 screens look good as well and take up less desk space. Do people think widescreen LCD's are worth it or do they end up being too wide? The alternative is something like 3 20 inch 4:3 screens.

3 x 22" of course, its much better.
There isnt much sense imo in buying a th2go digital edition to run 3 x 20" 4:3.

So you don't think its' "too" wide? I thought at that width the side screens are mostly out of your vision and are just in the periphery? Depending on how close you sit of course.

Just realised 3x 20"s at 1600x1200 (5.76M pixels) is perhaps beyond what TH2GO can manage anyway.

However I found a great price on some 20" 1600x900 screens, it would cost me about $200 more to go with 3x22's. Would I be dissappointed with 20's compared to 22's?
