Default Just picked up my 22" WS monitor

So I was at Microcenter just before picking up some AS5. And I caved.... I was gonna buy the 22" Samsung, but after looking at the Acer 22" and the price tag I couldn't resist, plus they didn't have the Samsung in stock.


So all I have to say is WOW.

Ill write more later on tonight.

And maybe some picks.


OHHH and I ran 3 different test and 0 Dead Pixels.

I'm not a fan of 22" LCDs, because they tend to have the same resolution as 20" WSs... I say if you're going big, go REALLY big... 24" WS with 1920 x 1200 or so.

I think that's what I'm gonna do for my next monitor. I like high resolution desktops...little icons and lots of real estate and whatnot...


CONGRATS, on the 22"

I was gonna go 24" but i couldn't justify spending 600+ for one. Cause for that price I can get 2 22" ones.

Neither did I, if I don't notice them, I don't care how many dead pixels it has.
