    $299 Wal-Mart HD-DVD.Not Quite Yet

    Since when is Engadget a source of valid information? http://news.digitaltrends.com/talkback186.html "We are sorry to correct the statement that we have two million HD-DVD players order from Wal-Mart and manufactured by China Great Wall Group. The actuality is that we had not received yet...

    HP L2335 23" 16ms... sweet

    It sounds to me like the LG product engineers are throwing around the contrast ratio specs as if they are not important. Apple and HP only know what they are being told.

    HP L2335 23" 16ms... sweet

    Hi guys, My contact over at HP sent me the following when I asked him about an update on the response rate: "Further clarification - we have not shipped any f2304s (or L2335s) with 25ms panels. The production panels have always met the 16ms spec; the specs were a little slow in getting...

    When you run any LCD using the DVI input it will knock your refresh rate down to 60Hz. How are the games looking with the DVI input guys? I haven't tried it on mine yet.

    Just make sure you do as much research on that Philips display as you have on the HP. I would hate something similar to happen to you as well. The HP f2304 uses the same panel as the L2335 but has speakers and a little different design. I am not sure which Philips or LG model would be the...

    HP L2335 23" 16ms... sweet

    This is what the HP PR rep told me when I showed him the spec sheet you guys posted: "The spec sheet you have may be old. It is speced at a 16ms response rate. I have heard no contradicition from our labs or other reviewers." I have faith in him since he has been 100% honest with me...

    The HP L2335 is an LG.Philips monitor. I will have my review up at Designtechnica next week. Here is what the HP PR rep told us: "The panel comes from LG.Philips (joint venture between LG electronics and Royal Dutch Philips). The monitor is built by Philips." I have also heard rumors that...

    What is tech support coming to?

    Great answers. I guess no one really answered what I was looking for. Would you pay more for a product to get better customer service and a better warranty?

    Is DirectX 9.0C support really that important?

    Is this something that ATI can just flash or add to their X800 drivers to add the 9.0C support? If so then this is probably not a huge deal. The fact that the 6800 needs a 480 watt PSU is pretty heavy IMO though.

    It can move in just about every direction possible. One thing I need to check is whether it will support an aftermarket LCD arm (that attaches to your desk). My guess is that is probably doesn't with the pivot and swivel features, but I am going to try anyways.

    What is tech support coming to?

    I called Netgear for techsupport and it went to their service center in India. The guy told me that even though the router has a 3 year warranty I only get phone support for 1 month. After that it costs $29.99 for each call into Netgear - but they have free support on their website. What is...

    Safe to put HT receiver next to pc monitor?

    If you do not see any color changes or a wavy image on your monitor you should be fine. If there is not sufficient shielding in your monitor OR the reveiver you will notice a rainbow color effect that shows up on your monitor.
