I just started a new job last week doing animation and video editing for an advertising company (yay me! 
) and they have me working on a 30" Westinghouse HD LCD screen (1280x720.. we do HD advertising). At home I have a 17" flat CRT that I've used for years and have been looking at getting a 2405 or something in the not-too-distant future.
Well, since I've been working on this 30" 720p screen... It's actually pretty nice... I'm starting to wonder if I really do need 1080 in a new monitor or not. Obviously the 30" westy probably wouldn't be great for gaming, but the resolution really isn't all that bad.. And I find myself sitting farther away from the screen which is probably a good thing. Today I have been working on a dual CRT machine for a few hours and my eyes are killing me.
I guess I'm just wondering what others think.. I'm rather surprised that the lower resolution screen looks as nice as it does. I definitely am looking at a larger screen.. at least one of the 21" widescreen monitors.. bigger if I can afford it, but now I'm starting to think about getting a HD TV to use for my home pc for gaming (PC and Console) and watching tv and movies...
