Post your monitor specs!

We've had a few "post computer specs!" threads in the past, and they've focused on the innards of our computers. But what about the screen, that glowy box of light that we stare at for hours?
I'll start off with mine.
Dell P1110 / Sony CPD-520
21" tube / 19.8" viewable area
.24mm dot pitch
The largest useable resolution is 1800x1440x75Hz. It can supposedly hit 2048x1536 at 60Hz, but I have no compelling desire to give myself headaches with that. I find 1280x960 to be a good desktop resolution.

Awesome, you have the exact same monitor that I do.
Except that I also have a second monitor, a Rosewill 19 inch LCD. I forget the exact specs, but it's a cheap one.

Samsung 19" 955DF - running at 1280x1024, 75Hz (yeah, I want 1600x1200, but that would give unacceptable refresh rates).

Viewsonic G90fb 1600x1200 @ 77 Hz.
19"(18" viewable) monitor, .25mm diagonal dot pitch, .21mm horizontal dot pitch. Current res is largest effective resolution (higher results in less than one physical pixel per logical pixel)

SATO P.O.S. OEM B.O.B.O.H. (beige offensive box of hate).
Max res is 1024x768. I have to have my gamma up at 2.4 or so along with high contrast and brightness on both graphics card and max them out on the monitor (otherwise its just black - no shit. at about 80/100 on the monitor for contrast and brightness the screen is just plain black).

I'm using a Dell P990, manufactured in late 1998, and it's still better than most monitors I've seen. Came with my top of the line Pentium II-450 with Riva TNT graphics card. Didn't see any reason to get a new one on any of my three upgrades since then, and I still don't.
19" screen, .25 dot pitch, 1600 x 1200 max resolution at 70 Hz. Currently running at 1280 x 960, 85 Hz.
