    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    This is really more a generic question about LCD's vs. CRT's in general, but I have been holding on to my CRT because I love the picture quality (I use it for DVDs, games, and general home office stuff). If I were to switch to LCD it would be this monitor. What's the comparison? How can I make a...

    Leave Dell 2405FPW on?

    Hey Providence, how does your PS2 work out on the 24" LCD? Everyone keeps talking about scaling problems, jaggies, ghosts, etc. -- are you experiencing that.

    Comparison of VGA converter to PCI TV card?

    Thanks -- I guess my question is, HOW MUCH better would the component > VGA conversion be than s-video? Would it be $80 better?

    Comparison of VGA converter to PCI TV card?

    I currently use a PCI TV card (the Compro Gold Plus) to convert my PS2 games onto my CRT monitor (using just the standard component cable). I have been contemplating getting one of the component to VGA converter boxes (e.g. the VD-23 or X2VGA) to improve the quality of the video feed. However...

    Another topic about a display for console gaming (I know, I know..)

    From reading many, many threads here it seems like there are quite a number of problems with getting consoles to play well with LCD monitors: 1. Upscaling. Most consoles are built for old-school TVs. LCDs have fixed resolution. Scaling from PS2 or Wii to console dimensions ruins the picture...

    Is the risk worth the savings at Dell Outlet?

    Any other thoughts on this? The $$$ difference is enough to make me think about the savings as banking towards the next monitor. Of course, I just made this mistake with not getting the warranty for a laptop and am paying $$$$ for it. :mad: Maybe I shouldn't make the same mistake twice.

    Is the risk worth the savings at Dell Outlet?

    I missed the recent markdown on the 2007WFP (now $399) and am now eyeing the refurb 2007WFP (now $280). While the new model comes with a 3-yr warranty, the refurb has only 180 days. I can't seem to find an option to upgrade the warranty. Is it completely insane to save $120 (30%) and lose 2.75...

    Dell UltraSharp 2007FPW = $339.00!?

    It's back up to $399 and free shipping is gone. I was waiting for the $20 Paypal coupon, but that never came through, those slimebags. Anyway, I guess I'm stuck playing the waiting game until the price goes back down again. It's $279 refurb, but with only 90-day warranty. Opinions anyone...
