<0> so take the samsung back and get the real one
<0> its killer
<1> he didn't buy it
<1> he was tryign a demo at the store
<2> harlock that's the one
<3> http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/03/the-dell-3007wfp-dell-brings-the-30-inch-lcd-love/
<3> bleh, thats what you want if you want the best
<1> how much is the furniture store selling it for?
<2> timewalk it has only 14ms respond time kinda slow
<3> wtf do you think a tv has?
<2> I have it at 1875$ canadians
<2> it was 2000$
<2> but I know the guy well so isn't going to screw me, and he even said if I don't like it in 2 3 months I can bring it back and get a nother model hehe
<2> ALL : so will I be better off with a good lcd instead ?
<2> 'cause I really want a tv too
<2> with all the plugs
<4> just buy the biggest crt you can find :P
<2> I am tired of crt
<1> it seems pretty hard to bring your compute rdown to the store and mess with it
<1> you shoudl ask to borrow the demo
<2> what do you mean ? he let me do everything ...
<2> like I am home alone in my corner
<2> it's a pretty big places so heh there is no kids running around where I am
<1> well you alreadysaid someone messed things up for you last time
<0> if you get the one i told ya to get you can hook you PC right to it
<2> harlock yeah the sellers
<2> mixman so it will have less messing up
<5> why not do dual monitors?
<0> excatly
<5> one for tv one for pc
<2> lil 'cause a big screen is a big screen ..
<1> the problem is finding one for sale
<2> I had dual monitors
<5> they make dual 30"
<2> so am I wrong trying to buy that ?
<0> yes, get the one from cosco and you will thank me later
<1> what is a cosco
<0> http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11042448&whse=BC&topnav=&browse=
<2> but mixman what if some **** happen like today and I am stuck with the tv at home
<1> that looks like costco to me
<5> http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2222537&CatId=0
<3> first of all, 32 ws is pretty small for a tv, especially on a 4:3 image
<5> dual 20.1" is nice
<0> i'm not typing well today its onlt 4 in the morning
<5> with the card to run them
<1> besides, that is US costco
<5> for only less than 1200
<0> well cross the border and get it
<2> yes US costco .. and it start to get big for a cmoputer monitor
<2> haha you know the price of the border ?? I wanted to get my screen in new york .. forget that
<2> p***ed the last 2 days checking this only
<5> yeah when we looked at one for the bedroom we were thinking 32 until we got to the show room and we were like that is tiny
<2> so to get back to the tv, you are all pretty sure I can make it to work by playing with the resolutions ?
<5> even 42 looks like the minimum
<2> in a dvi to vga mode .. not using composite or hdmi
<1> that is what it is built for
<1> so if it doesn;t work something is configed wrong or defective
<3> welp, its his money to waste i spose
<1> http://www.costco.ca/en-CA/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=10290398&whse=BCCA&topnav=&cat=3316&hierPath=2341*
<1> heh
<1> get that one
<2> harlock am sure it's a incompatibility in the adapters 'cause it work right away on the tcheap computer with a integrated video card vga to vga
<2> why you say that timewalk, I am just trying to get the best screen, and save for the future
<3> how much money are you trying to spend
<2> haha harlock kinda out of my budget
<0> lol
<2> around 2100$ with tax
<0> 17k
<3> and you need a hdtv plus a monitor
<2> with all my old **** sold, I am getting out of my pocket like 1500$
<0> somebody on stove gas to buy that
<3> what do you use your pc for
<3> you thinkinh htpc? or general purpose
<2> gaming, working, surfing
<5> get a nice lcd for the pc with a tv card and watch tv in the corner of it.....it aint like you can really watch 2 things at once or do you have like more than 2 eyes ? :P
<2> timewalk yes, a screen for everything
<3> and you're against crt/dlp?
<2> lil yeah I understand your point but the thing is, it's a little screen for tv a lcd monitors
<3> you're stuck in the middle... you're going to get a too large monitor with too low resolution for the computer, and a too small hdtv
<2> ok
<1> hmm, seems liek that 17k tv is the only 1080p one costco.ca has
<2> how can I get out of the middle
<0> not if you get the one i told ya to get
<2> hmmm
<3> if you get a lcd hdtv, you're gonna get ghosting during gaming
<3> much more so than that 30 lcd monitor
<2> timewalk well they say I won't
<5> i read lcd is not very good for gaming
<3> who, the salesman?
<1> the samsung is supposed to be 8ms
<2> with 8ms
<5> slow to move the pixels
<2> well on the web too
<0> i game on LCD works fine
<5> i play yahoo games does that count? :)
<2> no
<2> more like quake 4
<3> mm, yahoo spades
<0> i play SOF2 and more
<2> but lil, that's why I will test quake 4 tomorrow
<0> works just fine
<5> ya should just get a nice big crt for games
<5> quake4 very good ?
<3> nothing beats crt for gaming, period
<5> yeah stick with a giant brick i mean crt :)
<2> lil well I'll tell you more about it, when we'll be able to make the screen work lol
<5> hehe
<5> i was gonna get it for the kids
<3> id get a nice 19" or so for the comp, and a like a 42 dlp
<3> you can get both for that price
<2> that's sure if the ghosting is there tomorrow Iam not getting the screen
<5> dlp's have a very nice pic
<2> what so hot with dlp
<5> sharp pic from what i have seen
<3> picture is better than lcd/plasma, and is cheaper
<3> but its not 4" thick
<3> usually up to 20" thick
<5> plasmas are still not that great
<2> there is people on the web, who are saying the new generation of plasma, is good for gaming
<5> i want a tv that last atleast 10 years
<3> thats because old generation plasma had burn in's
<0> then get a tube if you want 10 years out of you monitor
<5> what are plasma's on like gen4?
<2> gen 9 for some
<5> hehe
<3> if you want real tv advice. www.avsforums.com
<3> tell you the pros cons of all of them
<5> ah forums are the best :)
<2> anyways
<2> I'll see all that tomorrow
<2> if the big screen ****s in gaming, or I can't have it to work, I'll just get a high end lcd monitors
<1> he is talking about a dlp rear projection tv
<2> and get back my old stupid 27inc tv
<2> lol
<0> rear projection tv are crap
<2> yeah
<2> no I mean
<3> i can only imagine sittting 1-2 feet away from a 30" at hdtv resolution :/
<2> projected crap lol
<1> front projectors are nice though
<5> would be hard on the eyes
<3> yeah, thats what i originally said, you should look at a projector
<1> but bulb life is weak
<2> timewalk projectors doesn't last very long and the lamp cost a lot
<5> our 60" is 12' away and thet feels close at times
<2> so ??? final recommendations anyone ???
<3> well thatd give you everything you need
<3> 19" lcd and 42" dlp
<5> we have a 32 in the bedroom and that is just far enough away to not hurt the eyes and be able to see everything well in a movie
<3> that'll run you well within your budget
<2> try to make it to work with dvi, or composite hdmi ???
