Background and Methodology<br />
NEC recently commissioned the University of Utah to conduct research on productivity<br />
gains of widescreen monitors versus dual or single traditional aspect ratio monitors.<br />
This study compared 26-Inch MultiSync widescreen (MS LCD2690 at 1920x1200<br />
resolution), 24-inch MultiSync widescreen (MS LCD2470WNX at 1920x1200 resolution)<br />
and 20-inch MultiSync traditional format (MS LCD2070NX at 1600x1200 resolution)<br />
monitors.<br />
Additional references were made to the findings from the 2003 multi-monitor<br />
productivity study which compared dual versus single 18-inch MultiSync traditional<br />
format monitors (MS LCD1855NX at 1280x1024 resolution).<br />
Ninety-six respondents were randomly assigned a display sequence<br />
which included a single 20-inch monitor configuration, a dual<br />
20-inch monitor configuration, and either a 24-inch Wide<br />
or 26-inch Wide monitor configuration.<br />
Respondents were randomly assigned both text and<br />
spreadsheet editing tasks, which were completed<br />
on each display configuration. Time and editing<br />
performance measurements were analyzed for each<br />
respondent on each monitor configuration.
