#1) When your raging woman sticks her fist thru your screen, you have enough time to grab her before she gets to the other two. This is my old 30" that she "retired," early and it was an expensive lesson into the benefits of having three cheaper displays rather than one super expensive one.

Yea this happened over a year ago, yea still with her lol, AND NO it was not a domestic problem as she was not mad at me, she was pissed and the monitor was in her way :(

*kitchen joke*

is she paying for the replacement? if not, what can you smash of hers? if my wife did that I would spend some of our savings upgrading my entire sig-rig.

Ummm, not married, and she actually was not mad at me. She was just so pissed that apparently the 30" made an enticing target :mad:

SoandSO: Ahh, yea she more than made up for it, and yes I completely maxxed out the rig.
 
Oh my, you have a strong woman there. I hope that domestic violence is not present in your home and she's not beating you.
Jokes aside, you'll see in time some benefits for multi-monitor display ( extended fov in shooters; etc )
 
Wow personal property insurance needs to be expanded to include Acts of Eve because they can be just like an unforseen natural disaster, causing much destruction and misery in their stormy wake. But that's why we love em right? :)
 
Yeah, I don't deal with anyone breaking my shit. If it was me, she would've paid for a new one by the end of the day. Hell, there should've been a new one in the mail before you got home. That's insane, screams "put me in anger management."

No its not, she got a phone call that her child had gotten itself into "preventable trouble (IMHO)" and she went batshit insane for a about ten seconds.

To Silent-Circuit....yea but what are you gonna do when it involves their child fucking up :/

She paid me back tenfold, however, the moral of the story is to go with eyefinity & surround versus one large expensive monitor lol

That's a stupid reason to not go 30" although I am pretty sure you are joking about it being an "actual" serious reason. If not then yeah, stupid reason.

haha kinda what I was thinking. I don't give a shit what the reason is. Punching my monitor is f'ing nonsense. It would actually make MORE sense if she was actual mad at him. Oh you are in my way!!! PUNCH. F'ing Stupid.
 
Buy another 30" second hand or refurbished. Ideally second hand. I know for the 3008 and 3011 Dell have a 3-year zero dead pixel guarantee, which should extend to second owners. 3007 I can't say for sure.

I've seen eyefinity and it's nice enough, but I really do think a single 30" is so much more flexible. It works with everything, there's minimal cable mess, there're no ugly bezels in the way, and I find the extra vertical pixels really nice for a desktop environment.
 
Would've been over for me, man, even if she punched and broke one of my 22's.

Also, you shouldn't have to worry about a monitor getting broken because your girlfriend punched it, even if it's a cheap monitor.
 
it's just stuff and people screw up.

If someone breaks my stuff I don't really care as long as they replace it. Like I said, it's just stuff.
 
Hah, I hope this girl is really hot and puts out. ;) Otherwise I'd toss her on the curb for punching my 30"!

I don't care if someone back me back ten-fold or 100-fold. I wouldn't be with someone who has so little self control that they have to start breaking shit to cope. If my child does something stupid, they get punished.. not my shit.
 
So I was thinking....it begs question if, at the time, you had eyefinity (3 monitors), would she have broken all three? Since she only had one monitor to punch when she went all crazy...

:p
 
Unless you have THREE expsensive monitors, then you just have more tragets.;)

Merry Christmas!:D
 
If you want any other upgrades soon, leave them out by the kitchen phone as you'll never know when Santa comes knocking again. ;)
 
when i was younger , my dad took a hammer to a 20" crt and it chipped the center of the screen and bounced the hammer back. i no longer needed a black marker to know where the cross-hairs were. it was pretty sweet.
 
Reminds me of the old vegas rule of thumb... never date a stripper. I know a guy who's stripper girlfreind went batshit crazy one day and bashed his '68 Vette with a softball bat. :eek:
 
The OP should apply the same logic to its girls.
3 thin women are way better than a very large one... :p
