whats the word on 19" LCD's for gaming?
I want to stay < 500, but not sure if thats going to be possible
The link Rob linked to earlier was gone the next day lol

I checked around a bit, and heard its getting better but not sure if 'better' is in the price range.

i have a 15" sharp LLT15.

25 sumthin or other response time........no complaints............need to set vsync on to stop tearing at some parts of some games, but image quality is spot on.........

19" would be cool...............

well think of it this way, if someone jumps in front of your car wearing any plastic mask holding what looks like a gun aimed at you, what would you do?

[washe]

I don't buy myself presents very often, so I'm splurging a little

Yeah splur a little with me too!

You want that 17".... its nice..

BTW all 19" I have seen at least in newegg are 20ms.....
Probably you will get some ghosting on them, most important thing I have noticed on LCD (at least for what I have read), its brightness, contrast ratio the bigger you can find the better it will display colors and most important black....

And lastly the response time of 16ms is preffered....

i would be happy with that 17", you can send one my way as a christmas present

Just read this over at /.:

My ISP won't talk to me after lodging a support call for helping gettting ADSL hooked up to a WinXP install running under VMWare under Linux on my XBox.

never never ever tell the ISP the truth lol

"I'm running XP" thats good enough!
You'd think if he can get VMWare running on Linux he'd know that.

Just found one of the Asus 939 SLI mobos.... $239 bucks... not on my list to get yet...

Apparently I shouldn't let my five year old brother watch Dawn of the Dead with me. I guess I will have to wait until he goes to school.

Mom didn't appreciate me having him watch a movie where in the first five minutes a guy and his girlfriend are making out naked in the shower, and a zombie girl rips pieces out of the boyfriend's neck in the morning.

Well looks like they havent changed a thing over the past... its always the same, couple having sex gets killed by mad <insert serial killler, zombie or any character you want>, after they finish.... and on almost all of them the girl never moves from the place and is screaming...

I never had such restrictions as a child, as my parents were pretty liberal concerning television and movie content. I demonstrated the ability to know the clear difference between reality and fantasy. However, having a lack of imagination concerning movies can be a serious negative at times, especially as I have grown older. For example, it annoys most people that I laugh when watching horror, action, and suspense films. I do not laugh because violence is funny. I laugh because the scene setups and plot lines are so insipidly stupid.

^ ditto what he said.

[Mike]

Actually, my dad wouldn't mind if he watched it, but my mom just needed something to yell about. Usually, if he doesn't want to watch whatever I am watching on TV, he will just leave the room or go hide behind a pillow.

I dont want to be here
too many things to do, and I things I like to do are lower priority.
I need to delegate more
