I had a great time in Cleveland this week. The AAII meeting there that I presented at was terrific with lots of great questions and audience participation. After the presentation, a very nice gentleman came up to me and started to ask me a question. He started with "I have a 13 inch monitor at home…"
Unfortunately, I never heard the rest of his question because he had hit one of my hot buttons and I (very rudely) interrupted him. (I totally apologize for interrupting like I did. It was wrong of me and I don't normally do that.)
Here's the thing - if you are serious about charting, you need pixels. The more the better. And now a days, pixels are cheap - really, really, REALLY cheap. Check out these prices from Google for 24-inch monitors:

As you can see, there are lots of monitors from name brand manufacturers for less than $300(!) these days. These things used to cost over $2000, but those days are long gone. If you are at all serious about charting (either by using our website or some other program) you really do owe it to yourself to make sure you have the biggest monitor you can get. Price really isn't an excuse any more.
