:D Hi everyone,

I finally bought the Dell 3007WFP-HC with a bonus free laser printer and with a bit
of haggling, I got 5 years warranty for $2,100. :D

I just can't wait know, it will take 3 to 6 working days to come?
 
Yeah that does seem a little too high in price.

Well, I hear it's a fantastic monitor. What video card will you be driving it with?
 
Um.... He's probably talking about Australian dollars..

I can't stand the mail service in Australia. Probably depends on the service, but I don't ever remember receiving mail after 5-6 pm, and certainly not on the weekends. It's a killer if its a long weekend.

Here in Japan, mail delivery is a god-send. Up to 9pm 7 days a week, and if your not home at the time, just ring up the mailed slip.
 
Sorry folks its in Australian dollars
I will run it with a slow 8600GT OC for know until the
8900 series come out
 
A proper calibration with a hardware based eye with software assist will likely be the best bet. I mean you spent the big bucks might as well have it at the best color/contrast/brightness as possible.

thats true What is the best to buy but not to expensive?

The least expensive is the Spyder 2 Express...the software is not great but the hardware colorimeter is the same as used in the more expensive packages. I have the Express but I plan to purchase Coloreyes Display Pro software at some point...I was part of the Beta program and I got really good results using the Spyder.

we just see that as normal, but yeah one delivery a day (in the morning) and only on saturday in the lead up to christmas. otherwise it just business days
 
Congratulations man, now you need to ditch your old card and get a 8800gtx to properly power up this bad boy. That's one hell of a monitor, reminds me of every time I go tot the apple area in Compusa the apple 30inch screen grabs my attention. Congrats man.

Yes I will ditch it, but I have to wait for the 8900 series to come out? I also do like the 8800 Ultra but I will wait?

Is this any good Pantone huey Monitor Calibrator

DELL-ChrisM (Liaison) said, that you do not have to calibrate it

this is what he said

ve2007,

No. Just connect it to the PC DVI and load the Utility Tool.

The PC video card must support Dual Link DVI to get 2560x1600. If not, it will default to 1280x800.
 
Every display can benefit from calibration. Its not a requirement, its an optional improvement.
 
Hi all,

I ordered my LCD on Monday afternoon and it arrived Thursday Morning at 8.45am:D
I just like to say it is HUGGGGGEEE and Beautiful with NO Dead or Stuck Pixels,
NO Backlight bleeding,No Buzzing, and NO stuck on/off power switch.

It's also running great with a MSI 8600GT Overclocked graphics Card running
flatout 2 at Native resolution and other games at 1280x800 and still looks good.
Well, I'm glad I made the right decision in picking Dell.:) :)
