24" is nice on the eyes plus you can open two pages side by side like a magazine. I have enough desktop space to really multi-task like no other. DVD movies fit really nice on it. Games look so much better.... really I can go on and on.
Only thing is though I'm using a widescreen 24" CRT not an LCD.

if dave said CRT i wouldn't have even bothered replying to him. lcds are shit compared to a capable/same class crt screen. (at the moment) fuck native resolutions and response times + from zero. pffffffPooinyourmouth wrote:24" is nice on the eyes plus you can open two pages side by side like a magazine.

I would, I just cannot justify the cost, the 20" is only costing me $100.00 after I sell my 17", I guess in a year when I sell my 20" for a 24" at a cost of $100.00 it'll be more worth it for meDave wrote:I think my question is better. Why wouldn't you want a 24" LCD on your desk

Yeah this thing is total shit... it uses 80W (max) of power, "0" depth relative to your awesome crt. it can swivel from 0 to 90 degrees with one hand tied behind my back (try that with a crt) and the response time is adequate.seza wrote:if dave said CRT i wouldn't have even bothered replying to him. lcds are shit compared to a capable/same class crt screen.

cool. what you're saying is: it justifies having a whack native resolution, a response time from 0, a large cost, and it being "OK" to be fragile and weak so's only to be able to turn a monitor with one hand (for whatever reason) - all so you can save a few pennies a month on your electricity bill? nice, i can respect that.Dave wrote:Yeah this thing is total shit... it uses 80W (max) of power, "0" depth relative to your awesome crt. it can swivel from 0 to 90 degrees with one hand tied behind my back (try that with a crt) and the response time is adequate.seza wrote:if dave said CRT i wouldn't have even bothered replying to him. lcds are shit compared to a capable/same class crt screen.

Why is 1920*1200 "whack"? I can run quake damn fast at that res with all the crap turned on and it doesnt ghost (I would know). I like how you ignore the portrait mode feature, which im using right now. I guess I dont have to address your last point since you respect thatseza wrote:cool. what you're saying is: it justifies having a whack native resolution, a response time from 0, a large cost, and it being "OK" to be fragile and weak so's only to be able to turn a monitor with one hand (for whatever reason) - all so you can save a few pennies a month on your electricity bill? nice, i can respect that.Dave wrote:Yeah this thing is total shit... it uses 80W (max) of power, "0" depth relative to your awesome crt. it can swivel from 0 to 90 degrees with one hand tied behind my back (try that with a crt) and the response time is adequate.seza wrote: if dave said CRT i wouldn't have even bothered replying to him. lcds are shit compared to a capable/same class crt screen.

ok so you want to run all games at 1920*1200. what kind of video card, processor, and memory are you using in conjunction to be able to run a game "seemlessly" at that resolution? fuck portrait mode. i have that too...i'll turn my head horizontal if a picture requires it. bam..just saved 500+ dollars on that feature. what else?Dave wrote:Why is 1920*1200 "whack"?

i'm glad my text on your screen prompted you to respond in that way psyche911. i look forward to interacting with you in other threads.Psyche911 wrote:Wow, seza is fucking annoying.
Go back to R&R or where ever the fuck you came from.
So it doesn't fit your needs. What the hell does that have to do with anybody else? I think they can decide on their own, so please, just shut it already.
yours,
