How big is yours?

So who is sporting a big display?

P.S. Apologies to those with dual displays or more than one Mac (add a caveat if necessary).

Smaller than the others mentioned so far, but it's what you do with it.

At the moment I've got just my Macbook so I'd have to say 13" but as we swapped computers, my hard drive is on my 'mr. Giaguara's' MacBook Pro, so 15".
I'd have a 19" around but selling it since trying to move soon...

17", 1280x1024. I'm starting to feel a little cramped, honestly. But only a little.

I'll probably buy a new one after I get a new computer. That's what I usually do. I've already gotten 2 good years out of this Mini, so I could replace it any time without feeling like a total chump. (I'm in no real rush, though.)

Both my monitor and computer serve me very well for 99% of what I want to do. I've started re-learning 3D modeling/rendering, though (after a hiatus of about 10 years), and it is painful!

For my 13.3" MacBook: Should I have chosen I have no computer or is 14" the most accurate? I have a 17" TFT as well, plus an 15' part of a white wall on which I project my movies run off the MacBook, but there's no 15-feet setting in this poll.

I have a 19" Samsung "Sync Master". Works really great, and can be tilted and the height of the screen can be adjusted.
