    I have an m14x r2 with 768 x 1366 res and was wondering what monitor size people have found to go well with it running the internal along side? Does a 24" look stupid next to the 14? Thanks.

    I have been waiting for a 24" monitor I am looking at to go on special, I dont think it would look that "stupid." for the mean time I use a 32" LCDTV as an external monitor, even though i have the 1600x900 display on my M14x. I get tired of looking/doing work on such a small screen. Here is a picture of my m14xr2 next to my 32" LCDTV. for size comparisons.

    I have the same res as you (1366x768 or whatever it is), and the pixel density is a decent enough match with my 22-incher 1080p.
