Default Just ordered a dell ultrasharp 27"!

I'm very excited.
http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/p...9&sku=223-9379

I ordered it earlier today. The ETA is kinda long, expected to come before October 30. But with this screen, susposedly among the best in its class, I hope I'm going to be pleased. I have used a 19" Dell Trinitron CRT since 2003 and I thought it was finally time to go to LCD. I didn't want to convert to LCD before the technology surpassed CRT for a reasonable price. I wanted a large screen because I'm a videophile, and I'll be using it for movies etc. when friends are over. I needed something with more pixels then I already had aswell, so 1920x1200 does that. Its got a worse refresh rate of only 60Hz, compared to this CRT which has 85hz at 1600x1200, however the sharpness among other things of LCD screens kinda makes up for this.

Since I live in Norway I paid roughly 1000$ for that, including tax which is 25% here. Just a week ago it cost 1350$ though, so this is a really good buy for others who are looking for the same.

I used to have a 42" Samsung. My 32" fits more nicely on my desk (in the corner of a L shape desk).

you dont need more than 26 or it will get hard to play a game
thats why pro's in counterstrike play competions on small 17 inch screens or 19.

I'm back to my 20.1" Sceptre. This is much more practical I think. That 46" was fun for a while though.
