Hi folks, There has been a while since I last visited this forum, a lot has changed :-) Looks very nice now ? However, I've a question that I can't find the answer to. I want to know if it's possible to connect a computer with an A/V receiver through a digital interface, preferably Coax or...

Hi! Last week I received this "little" baby.. I liked it a lot but the colors disappointed me - until today when I noticed there was this color menu ;) I changed from <Normal Preset> to <User Preset>, and that made a huge difference. My current settings: 1600*1200 @ 60Hz, DVI, Color...

Hmm a LCD updates its pixels only when it's needed; therefore they don't flicker like CRT's. This non-flicker, together with less radiation among other things, makes the LCD more pleasant for your eyes. If you think the LCD picture is hard to watch, try to reduce the brightness. "I use Word...

Good choice of monitor. But the monitor will not - unlike a CRT - refresh the picture 60 times per second, it will only update a certain pixel when needed. The point of having a 9800Pro w/ your 2001FP is that you can run games in 1600*1200, aka native resolution. Interpolation isn't something...

MX500 is lovely. But I hate the wire, so I would like to switch to a MX700. Btw, has anyone heard of the new mx510 mouse?

Since the monitor doesen't have a built-in tv-tuner, you ought to have one then. So I guess your tv-tuner shall have an audio-outport.

"When you connect an iPod to a Windows XP machine does the iPod show up in Windows Explorer like a normal drive (i.e. the D: drive?)" Yes, it does. But you'll to have a program such as iTunes to transfer music into it (of course you can add .mp3 files into it, but your iPod won't play 'em then).

"The Swedish veterinary organization claims that several hundred pets are raped in Sweden every year. Now there is a demand for a law making sex with animals illegal. " Actually, the numbers in the article was calculated after a British study, and recalculated to Swedish proportions. They say...

What Europeans thinks about americans (own experiences WOHO!) * They are dumb * They are trying to sue everything * They can't point out their own country on the map (WOHO2 - I have a link for this) * They drink 1 litre Coke for dinner * They are all fat and are watching TV 5h / day Of...

What size ? Hercules Prophetview 920Pro Dvi (17") is a good recommendation. It's using the Hydis' 20-ms panel that has achieved famous due to its good performance in gaming (see Tom's Hardware i.e).

Now I'm gonna confuse you even more. Response time isn't everything. Actually, all those LCD's are using the same panel, from AU Optronics. The "problem" is that it has only 262K colours, so if u are playing a game not using those colours - the others must be "mixed" by the existing; equals...

'Serial A-Tee-A' (actually I've never had the opportunity to say this but I guess if I would - I would do it like this) In English I think it sounds strange to pronounce it as if there was a word 'sata'. No one pronouncing it like the word 'Satan' except for the 'n'? :) I have also noticed a...

Imho the new 5-series is awsome. But the rest of his designed cars looks kinda crappy :P

One of each :-P

Oki ... But when it comes this kind of monitors they should be ordered from one manufacturer. I mean so they can easily re-badge a whole bunch of monitors, and put the Dell logo and their design etc. It's kinda important because that can tell me if the expensier monitor is worth the extra...
