So, i ditched the 19" and added 13 more. Anyone have a huge monitor? It makes fullscreen much, much better.

Monitor sizes, all?

It's not the size, but how you use it  ##

I have two monitors. The other one is the old 19" LCD I bought in 2006.  ##

You're not all that bright are you?

Your "computer monitor" is actually a 32" TV, branded as a PC monitor..... So Phillips can sell their old TV's at almost twice the price of the competitors.... eg. Samsung 32" TV

Whats even more impressive is your $520 "computer screen" doesn't have to have the other nice expensive bits that a TV has (like a tuner, HDMI port licensing etc) so it actually costs Phillips even less to make.

And assuming your 2006 monitor is an LCD screen, it probably has a better resolution than that 32" "computer screen"... a real computer screen of that size would have a resolution of somewhere in the region of 2560 x 1600 (or to put it in simple terms, 4 times the pixels per inch).

Facepalm indeed, but direct it at yourself because you just got well and truly ripped off (even if you got it half price) :fp:

I didnt pay that price.  ## That's best buy, I didnt shop at bestbuy, big guy. I called it a monitor cause it was sold as a monitor, in the monitor section of the store. What phillips manufactures it as is a moot point. I understand where you're coming from, but your assumptions and fact throwing is all for nothin there, genius. I could have paid $400 for a 27" with the same resolution, but I dont pay for fancy brand names. :3 Decided to go bigger for cheaper.

Plus, I got it brand new for $200  ## ## ##

EDIT: Less than half price, ftw

Oh snap man. That's great. I just got a new 14" flatscreen monitor to replace the 16" monitor I had that had a strange yellow tint to it.. Nevertheless, that computer is only for my minecraft server and other linux goodies. My RS machine is a 17" laptop.
