Wow,

Thanks for all the replies.
I didn't want to have to use my magnifying glass to distinguish buttons and controls.

General Mach Discussion / best monitor size

« on: October 08, 2010, 10:42:24 AM »

Hello,

I am new to the forum and am building a small CNC from Patrick Hood-Daniel's book.
The basic mechanical parts are put together and waiting for the electronics and software.
I have got a hold of a computer that I can dedicate to run Mach 3 but here is the question:

I am wondering what would be the best size monitor to run the software.
I would like to keep it as small as practical to save space. I have a source of a used 17 inch one at a good price.
Is 15 inch OK or maybe too small?

Thanks
Mark
