I = preferred two 24-inch monitors (plus a video monitor) Was only on the = 30-inch for three months. For those of you who use those, did you like = the size right away, or did you have to get used to it? Also, anyone here tried a 29-inch 21:9 display, such as this 2560x1080 = model from Dell? $700: = http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=3Dus&l=3Den&orig_s= =3Dgen&sku=3D225-4201&s=3Dbsd Perhaps not the best solution for AE, but interesting....

And = 16:10 over 16:9. But most of all I prefer large pixel count over = physical size. I would love to have at least the 2560x1600 ( or = 2560x1440) in a ~23" form factor :-) >>=20 >> Cheers >> S=F8ren
