Monitor troubles

[celticdragonfly]

So we got the new monitor. 19" LCD. As far as footprint goes, yay, this is what monitors should be like! I spent a lot of yesterday moving the computers around so I could use the new monitor and get back to sitting (tentatively) at my desk.

Today I have a terrible headache. And as I am doing stuff on the computer, I think it's getting worse. Damn. I'm beginning to suspect it's eyestrain again, and the LCD is too fuzzy. I just yanked the screen resolution down, as I'm wondering if the mega huge size with everything so small was making it worse. We'll see.

LCD's look fuzzier if you don't run them at thier inherent resolution.

So you can have sharp, crisp, and very small print, or bigger and fuzzer print.

Hope you find a setup that works for you.

The very small print did NOT look sharp and crisp. It still looked fuzzy, just smaller.

Btw, how *do* you get all the cool Firefly mood pics? I'm terribly jealous.

Oh, I downloaded those a while back from one of the LJ Firefly communities. Came from a user named stormymouse, you could go check that journal and probably get them.
