    30" Still pretty much $1000 for a decent one?

    that's good to know. though i have heard a story if they think it got peed on, they won't repair it. so i was worried they wouldn't work on it. anyway i love this monitor, that's the main point of my post :D

    30" Still pretty much $1000 for a decent one?

    i got a dell 3007 a couple months ago from their outlet site for only $750 + $40 shipping and i am LOVING it. it's incredibly crisp compared to my 24" (smaller pixels). strangely, my cat peed on the screen about 1 month after i got it. it immediately turned itself off and i unplugged it and...

    need some hand-holding - what motherboard should i get?

    from what i've read of ati's latest stuff, it is hotter, uses more power, and is comparable to nvidia cards costing less. when the new ati stuff comes out is it going to be a big leap forward? if not i'd rather just go with the "safe" choice of the 8800

    need some hand-holding - what motherboard should i get?

    need some hand-holding - what motherboard should i get?

    thanks for the reply a) i was trying to budget the parts only to make it easier for me to figure out how much i can spend on each. the cpu is a big variable (anything from 80 up would be fine) and the video card price is pretty stable so i was trying to triangulate to see how much i could...

    Acer AL2423W 24" Review, Pics.

    acer is slightly cheaper (700 vs 720-800) supposedly dell 2407 has some bad problems with DVI input (banding + color problems) dell has lots of inputs (hdmi, composite, dvi) and a smart card reader to display photos or whatever. the acer has only 1 dvi-d input
