Sysadmin here. LogMeIn silently increased their prices by 500%. Didn't find out until we saw the reoccurring bill. They lost our business forever.

I'll share another horror story as well. I had a Sabertooth Z77. Everything was great until my CPU died. Weird, but it happens I guess. I buy a new CPU. A month later it dies as well. Now between this time I had replaced the memory and the power supply, so I was fairly certain those two items...

I must be missing something. I have a desk from the 80's that turns into a dining room table that seats about eight. It's a lot nicer crafted and not to mention better looking than that thing.

Looks great!

Faster, quieter and a hell of a lot cooler than what I'm running. Sounds good to me!

Sorry to hear that. My first and only PA241W is beautiful. I love it! There are good ones out there. Sounds like you just had some really bad luck.

I love that AMD is there to help keep prices low.

Love the colors! I'm sure it would look fantastic in my case. ;)

Never used a XFX card before but a lifetime warranty sounds really nice!

Wow. Yeah, I agree with cvgd. Pics please! It must be nice to work for NEC. ;)

I never even knew Corsair made speakers. Hopefully I'll get to try them out. ;)

I'll take a shot at this. I used to use Corsair memory quite a bit.

I've updated the OP with a review of the 30" from anandtech. I've also replaced all of the product links as it looks like NEC changed the site up a bit.

Well, it looks nice. I don't think I've ever used a MSI product before. Perhaps I could get the chance? :D

Last I read it was dated for fall of this year.

tftcentral has posted their review of the PA271W. I've updated the original post with it. http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/nec_pa271w.htm

So by your logic World of Warcraft was not made by Blizzard because they hired people to work on the game? It's a MMO. It takes a massive team to make one. Hell, by that logic Diablo isn't a Blizzard game considering it was developed by a studio called Condor up until six months prior to the...

It does. It isn't consistent with the measurements. Sometimes it measures by percentage vs other countries, other times it lists per capita, it also lists by total numbers. It's a hodgepodge of information from all over the web from all sorts of random sources, some trustworthy, others not so...

That image is so full of crap. First of all, it is rather picky on what different nations get stuck with as their "number one". The US gets serial killers? Really? Out of all of the things that the US has the most of? Corn? The US is the biggest producer of corn in the world. By far. The US...

I assume this means it compares more to the NEC PA241W considering that is a p-IPS panel as well. Assuming it is the same panel, that means it will be a 10-bit display and in a higher bracket (and more expensive bracket) than the U2410.

It does not. PA241W uses a 10-bit p-IPS panel. U2410 is 8-bit H-IPS. Both are manufactured by LG though.

I've seen nothing other than pure speculation that points to the 27" Apple display being a 10-bit panel. I think they would be advertising the crap out of that if it was. My guess is it will be a different grade of monitor, more comparable to the U2711 from Dell rather than the PA271W.

I updated the original post again. I've posted all of the reviews I know of for the PA241W. If someone is aware of another let me know and I'll add it to the list. Also, if you see any information that looks incorrect or even something worth noting send me a PM or mention it here.

Why are these sites using DVI for their review? It pretty much defeats the point of having 10-bit color depth. I guess I expected these review sites to have the proper hardware and software for testing a monitor like this while running comparisons to 8 bit, but it seems to be asking for too...

It should be updated this month according to a NEC rep. http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1004&message=34693323

Has anyone received one of these yet? I'm still waiting on reviews.

Very in!

I noticed today that http://tftcentral.co.uk/ is going to be doing a review of the PA241w. I can't wait to see the results! There also looks to be a 23" (PA231w) at 16:9 but it uses e-IPS instead of p-IPS. Has less aRBG coverage. I don't think it would be much better than the EA231wmi.

So what exactly is the difference between a p-IPS and a H-IPS? The Japanese site said p-IPS with a (H-IPS) next to it. I assume some sort of slightly modified H-IPS?

Ok, I lied. Sort of. The 24" 16:10 PA241W will be out in March. The rest to follow after. http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1004&message=34324869

There was a post today on dpreview from a NEC rep that we should expect the PA series in stores by the end of March.

I found this page. http://pc.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/20100113_341989.html Google translation...

I updated the original post with the new pdf link.

I'm not really interested in a 16:9, but I am still very curious about this as well. The EA231WMi is still pretty new. I'd like to see how current generation E-IPS compares to the panel that will be in the PA series. As for price... Probably. Perhaps even more. I think the 2490WUXi2 was about...

The pdf mentions emulation so that would be my guess as well. What I did find interesting is that each input is supposed to have its own LUT. Which I think means that it will be able to run two different settings if you used the Picture in Picture function. So you might be able to view how...

Yeah. I was a bit disappointed to see the series listed as using CCFL still. :( It seems to be the same system that the current 90 series uses.

Both it looks like. From the PDF: Also, just checked Energy Star. The 24 inch is registered there. The article stated early 2010 and if it is already on Energy Star it is probably not too far off...
