How is a mediocre 42" thick bezel, thick frame LCD TV only 18-24" away from your face a "pretty nice setup"??

You have pretty low....no, REALLY low standards if you think that is a nice setup.

so which is worse...this ^ kind of hate and smarmyness, or the OP's?

:hmm:

What kind of screen is that? Looks like a large screen TV which at that distance is D: for most things. 1920x1080 just doesn't cut it when you are < 2 feet from a 40+ inch screen. If it's an actually monitor then OMFG WANT, but I don't think such a beast exists.

I use a 32" 13x7 screen an arms length away. It looks fine although if I was buying one now I'd get a 19x10

I only knew because someone posted a pic of him a couple of weeks back talking to people picketing for HL3 outside of valve.

I wonder if he admits to anyone on WoW who he really is, we need an image enhance on his char's name to narrow it down.

If we rotate the image to get at least a 50 degree angle, we can zoom and enhance the reverse image in his glasses.

I don't even care about Ep 3 anymore. I think they're holding off on it because they're afraid of Duke Nukem Forever syndrome - it would be extremely difficult for them to live up to the colossal expectations. So they just work on other stuff and it all ends up being pretty damn good.

Gabe himself is a funny guy who doesn't take anything too seriously. You just can't help but like him. He sometimes responds to people's emails and the results are pretty funny.
