I didn't notice.

It did look nice, but the widescreens are a bit disorienting to me. I have one at work and after using that is when I got my screens. After using a widescreen for over a year, I'm still not too comfortable with it.

What desk is that? And if you want a cheap secondary 19" lcd the samsung 910t is pretty good (if you don't mind 25ms response time) and is only 445 at newegg. If you need a faster response time their are a few others in that price range that are 16ms but I forget the brand and models.

Yea the 2 MX1000's are for the ibook and pc :)

I really want an additional 2 LCD's, as my current one has a rubbish vertical viewing angle. Was possibly looking the Dell UltraSharpe 2005FPW 20" but I haven't heard great things about dead pixels and stuff, also don't like the look of 'em !

Desk was from ikea, but that was years ago and I don't think they make it anymore :(

It's nice not to have to pull out the treay by hand anymore. What happened was that I came back from swimming, before I went outside, I left my computer burning a CD, of course, it opened. You know the adjuster handle for the chair? That was over the drive tray I came back, sat down, and I'm sure you can figure out the rest from here. But I got 1 3/4 years out of it before it went.

Edit: flipped pic of computer.

You do realize that BenQ Manufactures dells monitors, right? I got 3 BenQ FP767's and I won't pay Dell's prices when their stuff isn't any better anyway.

switch out that crt for the dell 2001fp in the background!

585301689[/snapback]

Those are dual Dell FP2001 displays there btw, and yes this is just a temporary setup until I install everything. I still need to work and complete projects. But once it's done, dual LCDs with LX700 keyboard and MX1000 (aka MX3100) goes on this dual Xeon. But thanks for the advice. The older machine gets a dual CRT Mitsubishi's.

Well, if you want to compare..

Dell 1704Fp = $400

Benq 17" = $350

Dell specs:

12ms response

1000:1 contrast ratio

Benq specs

16ms response

400:1 contrast ratio

I think the dell is worth the extra $50. Although Benq manufactures dell's monitors, they are much better than the benq branded ones. Im running dual 1703fps, and think that dell's monitors are overall the best in the world.

Why did you spend so much on a computer?

you should have spent more money on peripherals like monitors, speakers and mouse / keyboards than on hardware that will be second-best in 6 months.

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
