    New Monitor: What to choose?

    Onvia.com is selling the Sony G400 for 507. There's a coupon for $50 off $500. Free shipping and no sales tax unless you live in Washington state or Arizona. That comes to 457 delivered. A tremendous deal for a quality monitor.

    Sony E400 vs G400, opinions please.

    Direct from the Sony website I read the same warranty is in effect for both the E and the G. I would be surprised if different screen coatings on the E vs. the G.

    Sony CPD-G400 for $729 US?

    I just ordered a G400 from onvia.com for 457. Onvia lists it for 507 (about 20 less than the E400, go figure). I used a 50 dollar off coupon (go to techbargins.com). Free shipping, no sales tax. Bottom line....457 delivered. A great value.

    After spending the last week eveluating the Samsung 955 DF I've decided to return it to Best Buy. The reasons: I just couldn't seem to get the 955 adjusted to my satisfaction I found a G400 for 457.96 (at Onvia with $50 coupon) At 457.96 I consider the G400 to be a great value. That's 457.96...

    Is The Optiquest Q95 a Good Monitor?

    For 275 I would at least consider a Smasung 955 DF. With manufacturer's rebate and coupon I think you can beat 275 at Onvia.com

    I'm torn...Sony E400 vs. Samsung 900 NF

    OK...I've poured over the many, many threads debating the virtues of one monitor over another. In doing so the concensus of the forum becomes quite evident - both Sony and Samsung produce excellent monitors. I've narrowed my decision down to two particular monitors: Should I purchase a...

    Compaq, Dell, Micron, Gateway or ???

    We use Dell celerons on a 10 workstation LAN here. No problems going on about 18 months now. Dells seem very well built. The cases use heavier guage plastic nad they are well shielded. Tech support is great.

    PIII 800 mhz for $600.00 from Dell good deal?

    Well...I paid 890 for a 4100 refurb from Dell: PIII 800; 30GB HD (7200 RPM), CD-RW, PC-133 (i815 chip set, I believe). Very happy so far. Sounds like you got a great deal, though.

    Dell Dimension 4100 - 200 Watt power supply sufficient for fully loaded system?

    I agree...the 4100 is very quiet. Maybe the quietest I've owned.

    You guys are going to shoot me...gotta send my Dell Laptop and exchange it for a Dell desktop...

    The 4100 most assuredly has an APG slot. BTW, you might try checking out Dell's refurished inventory. Same warranty, same great tech support.
