Shotgun 1 #1 November 18, 2003 Just trying to get an idea of what the most common screen resolution is. According to w3schools.com, 1024x768 was the most common as of July '03. Just curious how that compares to what dz.commers are using... (mine is currently 1280x1024 if anyone wants to know ;-) Edited to say: Multiple answers are allowed for those of you with more than one computer (or for those with multiple personalities who often change their resolution)!

Well you just taught me something because I didn't know a monitor was a type of lizard (shows how much I know about lizards)! Ok well now I am reading about lizards instead of working, so I better save the monitors for later!
