You don't have input lag? That should be something to watch out for and I would caution you against running systems on these monitors for this reason. Anyway, yeah, you'll need a VGA adapter if you want to play on the 20 incher. I can't offer much more assistance than that, sorry.

Ok, looking forward to hearing about it :)

Has the 3007 been tested against a CRT yet?

My department just received an "offer" on some supposedly very high-quality monitors that were formerly used in radiology elsewhere: I'm going to quote from the email. "They are Planar dome C3 gray scale monitors (see below for a partial descriprion, but should you be interested, please be...

I guess I'll just wait to see if it becomes a real problem then.

I think it's a little late for that...no? Besides, my 2405 is perfect aside from that. No backlight bleed, no high-pitched whine, no dead pixels, no rolling lines on component-in, etc.

Yeah, a cheap VCR can take in RF and output composite, at least.

They overnight them, but sometimes due to supply issues it can take a couple days before they have them available to actually send. My RMA turnaround time was something like I got the replacement 5 "real" days (including Sat+Sun) after I called for it.

False. I immediately RMA'd my first 2405 due to high-pitched whining, and the replacement doesn't have the problem.

I've played a few console games on mine (direct hookup via component) and haven't felt any lag whatsoever

Er, so what does "HDTV input" mean, exactly?

Thanks! I'll rest easier tonight.

So, I RMA'd a whiny 2405. Dell sent the UPS guy with a sticker to put on the box, and I was assured everything would go without a hitch and I wouldn't be charged for anything. I just checked UPS's site with my tracking number, and I got... Aug 5, 2005 10:24 A.M. LOUISVILLE, KY, US...
