Anyone running Ableton @ 1680x1050 resolution on 22" widescreen?

How does it look? Are the controls too tiny to work with?

I'm running it on a 24" 1920x1200 panel (sometimes two--just spanning though), but I don't find it too hard to find the buttons.

to me 1680x1050 on a 22" screen is just right - depends on how close the screen is to you eyes of course

I'm on 1680x1050 on my 20". It's fine. My last laptop was 1680x1050 at 15.4" which was fine too - if you're not too far away.

I run 1680x1050 on my Dell 15.4" laptop, it's great because I can get loads of tracks scenes viewable on the screen, it's bad because I go googly eyed and walk into lamp posts after 10 minutes :)

Works for me, but would be even better on a bigger screen ...
