Curved monitors

[d.healey]

Thank you all. I decided to go with a flat monitor, the idea of my straight lines being distorted freaks me out :)

@d-healey Can't you go to a shop with a laptop and a cable to test it in real?

Yup, I thought about that too.

Anyone using a 16:9 4k monitor? Do you find the text is too small to read?

[DanH]

@d-healey you mean in 3840 x 2160?

[d.healey]

@DanH Yea

[DanH]

@d-healey yep it's tiny! I stay on 1920 x 1080 and everything is nice, crisp and readable

[d.healey]

@DanH That's what I figured :)

@DanH I currently have a 1440p which I'm quite happy with. I like the extra space and the text is readable - although some webpages I zoom a little.

@d-healey 4k is nice for the eyes, they will thank you for it - makes you realise what you've been looking at all these years! Your plugins will look a lot nicer too....

@d-healey Curved monitors are great. Curved monitors are becoming a more popular option, in resolutions and ultra-wide format.

@d-healey I think this is a case where we need to acknowledge that the bot has at least tried to stay on topic. The contribution to the topic is super generic, but that's a good thing because if the bot would come up with an opinion that was "smart and interesting", we would have to start preparing for The Uprising.

yeah but sadly the bot has failed to include its nasty URL link so its really failing at bot 101....

@Lindon Or it's a sneaky bot that tries to lure you into a real conversation and when you last expect it, BOOM, INDIAN ESCORT GIRLS!!!

It just gave up because I leaked its master plan.
