Yeah they are much sharper and all this stuff about colour reproduction and brightness and blacks and things is pretty overblown too. The black on my laptop looks pretty deep and its the same on my LCD at home.
Nice one Zep!!
I got this a while back
Samsung Syncmaster930BF
Heres a better pic.
Only problem with it is theres a little bit of leaking light but thats only noticable on a full black screen. Its so sharp I cant watch my old DVDs on it, House of Flying Daggers looked like shite!!
Perfect for gaming most definitely. HL2 looked so much better it was silly!!
The one thing I havent yet tried is hooking my Xbox360 up to it. I bought the VGA lead about 3 weeks ago but havent got round to testing it. I suppose Im too used to widescreen
All is not lost....give me another month and Im gonna buy a 37" HDTV from LG. Shame I couldnt get it sooner, those world cup matches would be great!!
I still think that the most impressive thing was the space saved on my desk!! Im running 2 LCD monitors I spread the desktop over when I need to. Otherwise I just use the one pictured. The missus also bought a cheaper Samsung LCD a while back and since both PCs share the same desk its really saved some space!
Oh, the desk is home made by the way and runs almost the length of one whole wall. More like a big shelf than a desk I suppose.
