    Doesnt really matter. Usually people with vision problems go with 800x600 because it makes the screen appear smaller and the icons/windows bigger. However, it also makes the screen appear to be more "blocky". I use the highest by screen supports, which is 1200x960. This just makes the bars appear smaller, so you can fit many more icons on your desktop.

    I dont think so... Only CRT monitors are bad for your eyes, LCDs arent.

    With LCDs I believe you can use whatever you want, but I think on CRTs it will always be bad because of the curvature of the screen.
