Look what I got on the Fiancee's Best Buy discount...

The sheer size of this thing is amazing! Its so sleek looking too..

Almost don't have room for it on the desk!

Finally...1920x1200...

Now it is time to game!

If you ordered a T240 you got a really good deal because they gave you a T260

 

[H3||scr3am]

yeah box says T260...

is that a new bike I see, looks like it still has the price tag on it

 

[Zeag]

I hope you meant T260. Otherwise I understand you think its large for a 24", because it ain't

I'm personally waiting to be able to afford a T240HD for some 1080p goodness

Great monitors.

Can you tell me if it's VESA mountable? Seems to me the new Samsungs no longer have it.

How much was the discount? And what was the total cost? Should I get a job at best buy lol?

 

[Thai]

Also, how is the viewing angle? I've read reviews that it's next to nonexistent. :S

/facepalm
I was super tired when I finally got home and got it all set up. I did in fact buy a T260.

It is, the little guy just turned 6, so I got him his first bike for his birthday. We still need to take it out and crash it a couple times.

That they are, this one is even sexier than the 22" Samsung that I had before it.

It is not Vesa compliant, but I do believe that there are a few places out there selling a special mounting bracket for the T240/260s.

I got the monitor for $378.72, which did not seem bad to me considering that I got it right away and did not have to pay shipping. Best Buy would be a decent job to have for a few hours a week just to get discounts on stuff, their discount is pretty good.

It is amazing. The only time I have any issue with it at all is if I am standing right up against my computer desk, standing straight up. I am over 6 feet tall, so when looking straight down on it, there is a slight issue with it, but that does not really make a difference I don't think, and its not even that bad.

Hey, there's a valid $30 MIR too, be sure to use that.

(I also edited the title for you)

@Thai, nope, no VESA mount. That's what pushed me away from it

I even checked the PDF to make sure it would count for it. I didn't think they'd list where you can't have bought it from. Sorry to get your hopes up.

But hey, at least you have a T260 to brighten your mood
