Yeah it is though I keep forgetting its on. Good job I have it on Series Link. ;) Are you using eyetv to watch TV on your Mac?

[sambrentnall]

no just using the TV tuner in my TV with PIP but im serieously looking at getting the new eye TV so i can record files. I think im going to get the TB time capsule so store it all on. Do you use eye TV 2 then?

Ahh I see cool. I used to own an eyeTV ages ago, found out I didn't actually use it a lot so flogged it on the Bay of E. Been looking at the USB stick versions of eye TV and think their pretty cool. The eye TV Diversity has two tuners, so can record and watch another live channel at the same time. :)

Thanks dude.

I wish they'd release mini-DVI to HDMI though. I hate too many connections.

Very nice (Y) Is one screen a 20" and the other a 23"? If so, do you notice a difference between them? I know one is bigger, but is the extra resolution really noticeable? Thanks in advance! :)

Actually the bigger screen is a 30" and the smaller one is a 23". The TV is a 40" :)

Well that makes my question even more relevant. :laugh: I'm trying to decide between between the two, so my previous question still applies here - is the resolution difference between the two noticeable? Thanks again ;)

[Blinky]

ohh, the 30" pwns the 23" hands down. 2560x1600 is ace. The 23" has 1920x1200 iirc. So the resolution difference is quite noticeable.

Thanks for the answer :) You helped me make up my mind (Y)

There is an enormous price difference though. Here in Belgium the 23" is ? 900 cheaper than the 30". You can get 2x 23" for the price of 1x 30", my decision would be an easy call.

I already have to 20" ACD's, and even though the 23" is bigger resolution wise, there's not enough difference between the two for me(Y)Y)

goodcase: Nice setup, very clean. Love the desk and the whole color scheme that's going on there, sure looks a lot better than my desk and bland white/beige walls.
