I much prefer playing Oblivion...much better graphical display

And I much prefer eating a nice steak dinner and having sex with my wife - some facts that are just as irrelevant to this thead as the ones in your post. :roll:

Here's some pics of my monitor(s) and WoW on the 30".. Sorry for the messy desk, I had to get the monitor unpacked, take a few pics and head back to work. The 24" is unplugged currently but I will be doing so for dual monitor setup.

The game looks fantastic at that res and any blurring or excessive lightness/darkness is attributed to over/underexposure from the camera..

The game looks much more crisp and bright in real life on it.. But this is to just give an idea I guess..

That's sick.

Also, you have the same keyboard as me. Where'd you get the mouse pad?

1) I bought 2 expansions over 1.5 years of playing... so no
2) If you count the couple screens that you see when the game is loading, yeah it's there. But I haven't see anything when actually playing the game.3) Maybe, but I haven't encountered anything.

but isn't the game loading 80% of the time? i mean every time you go from one section of the city to another it has to load.

Well... I said loading as in when you first log into the game. Loading from zone to zone doesn't have any ads. Depending on your computer, zoning takes maybe 5-10 seconds so you don't spend too much time doing that. Besides, 80% of your time is spent walking from point a to point b.

I got the mouse pad maybe 9 months ago.. It's a limited edition funcpad that I think they stopped making in favor of making their newer models.. It is the MBA (machine bulleted aluminum) one.. I know they make an MBA one now as well but I don't think it's the same..

Works awesome. Love it.. One of the best cheap purchases I've made :) I really like the clickyness of the keys.. I haven't had a problem with slipping, altho I don't really rest my entire hands on it so.. I guess results may vary from person to person :)
