Ill be waiting.......... BORING!!!!! 22" on sale not bad. Ive got a 30" Cinema Display that I did not pay for at work to have fun on.  tho. I would probably never go higher then 24" at home. There is no way you use every icon on there. You have 2 firefox icons, do you really need 2 of them?  |

Look at the Resolution. Its a POS Display. That would be a really bad computer monitor because of that. There is also a really good saying about NEC. they are " Not Even Close" because there stuff is so bad. |

On my laptop, but I don't know why the dragon and flames perched atop the start menu didn't show up. Maybe because they move?

I wish alot more people would start getting bigger monitors, so I can stop coding websites for 1024x768. Its a pain in the ass to make anything fit right on the real low resolution. for me 24" is the sweet spot. I really need the extra resolution that a 24" gives over a 22" the 30" is just too big for home use, so I only use it for 3D max basically. |

i was going to get a Samsung 24 inch monitor. but some unexpected financial things ....yeh..so i got my 22 inch. but yeh. i had my 17 inch set to 1152x864 or whatever that resolution is. i liked it. but then i changed to 1280x1024...which is nice. but i still prefer the 22 inch widescreen...or a 24 inch...those are the best for home use.. |
