As far as I can tell...
UPDATE: The case has been sold (thanks Kettchxxii!). The monitor is still for sale. I am now asking $100 plus shipping.
I recently bought a 23" 120hz monitor, so I am selling one of my 20WMGX2 monitors. This monitor was a refurb when I bought it direct from NEC. It has around 9,165 hours on it...
I just got a VG236H to replace one of my NEC 20WMGX2. The response time on this monitor is amazing, but I am having a REALLY hard time getting it calibrated correctly. I know it's not fair to compare it to my IPS monitor, but I just cannot get the colors, gamma, and contrast on the Asus to be...
I just recently noticed that I can't force AA via the control panel for any of my games. If the game itself supports AA then it seems to work fine, but otherwise I have no luck. I first noticed this with Mass Effect 1 and then tried L4D2 as I know forcing AA through the control panel has worked...

There are wonderful deals going on both of these cards right now: The GTX260 can be had for around $150 and the HD4890 can be had for around $200. I currently have a 8800GTS 640.
Which card is currently the better deal? I almost jumped right on the 4890 deal but after looking at multiple...
I also posted this at HowardForums, but I figure more exposure is never a bad thing.
Some backstory first...
In December of 2007 I got a new phone (LG VX8350). At the time I was still on my mother's account as I was still in school. As far as I know, this renewed my contract for 2 years...
I saw over in [H]otDeals that Creative currently has an amazing sale on a lot of refurbished products (http://us.creative.com/shop/shopcategory.asp?category=618). I currently have an Audigy 2 and have been wanting to upgrade for quite some time. I am currently using the old Logitech z-560 4.1...
Let me start by saying I am a CRT lover. My HDTV is a Sony XBR960 and I've never used a LCD as my primary display for my computer. I feel that the color and refresh rate of CRTs cannot be beat by any flat panel, at least not currently.
Unfortunately my CRT is slowly dying :( . It's a 19"...

I accidentallysnapped my old blue cold cathode in half when my friend and I were hiding all of the wires in my computer last night. I plan on getting two cathodes to replace it, but I'm not sure what colors to get. Here's some pics of my case:
