Psychopath Registered: May. 01	Hi, i have a few question for the computer experts in here. I am currently getting a new CPU, and i have decided on the nvidia Geforce 3 ti500 card. Now the problem being, i don't know which monitor should i get to match the graphic card. I don't feel like spending a crap load of money on a LCD screen and then find out later, i should have stuck with the CRT monitors b/c it had a better resolution. I have also been reading up on some of the new DVI they have on the LCD monitor... Is the result better than the CRT monitor? Is it worth all the money? So any input on the subject of LCD w/ DVI, CRT monitors, or even the newer CRT w DVI would be welcome. (Some of the monitors that i was looking at: NEC LCD 1550x, FP955-SV, Sony LCD SDM-M51D, SDM-M61, Sony multiscan HMDA-400/L, CPD-G420S, G520 or samsung 955DF) PS: where can i get the best prices if i do decide on one of these monitor??

AIM: SmarterChild Write To Me Here I think it all started with the Declaration of Independence -- the idea that we had the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That pursuit is what took America from the revolution to the computer age in 200 years. But the progress has come at a price. The obvious being the people that were exploited to make it possible; the not so obvious being us, the first group of people that were given no obvious frontiers to conquer. We hear stories that about the good old days that don't seem to apply anymore. It's a generation gap that leaves us without role models. But the bright side is that without role models, there are no roles. Maybe that's what the 60s were all about -- getting rid of the roles. But what do we replace them with? Without any guidance, what do we replace them with? Without any guidance, the choices become overwhelming. Sometimes it just makes everything feel hopeless. So we destroy our bodies in the search of an ideal. Try to salvage relationships that don't work. We feel we must do something, instead of doing something that we feel. It is the prison of self-imposed momentum, and the sad part is that we get used to it. It reminds me of a song I heard the other day. It's called "The Going Nowhere Fast." But the people I have met here have shown me another side of Nowhere. They've pointed out the beautiful irony that stagnation makes it easy to stop and smell the roses, if we just let it. What would we be if we had nothing to rebel against? Well we could finally be ourselves, the first group of people who stopped looking for the answers long enough to appreciate the questions. And all we have to do is to make our own Declaration of Independence. We can embrace the right to life and liberty by simply realizing that happiness exists -- not to pursue, but to accept. After that the only challenge would be to make sure with the rest of our lives that we weren't just another fad. I don't know, it's an idea. What do you think?

I checked C-net.com for Prices and reviews first,Then went to best buy/circuit city etc etc. And checked them all out (at the store theres usually 6 or 7 moniters hooked to one feed,so keep that in mind when checking picture quality). I picked up the samsung 955df for about 3 bills with a 40$ rebate. And I love it, Great moniter for the price. 24/7 tech support 3 year warranty also

Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01	Well, as an FYI, the following deal was found at slickdeals.net: Dell Home has the Dell 15" E151FP LCD Monitor for $359. Add it to your cart to get 20% off and then enter the coupon code DC6C3A014759 for $25 off. Search for "E151FP" to find it. Final price is $359 - 20% - $25 = $262. ------ Not a terrible deal for a flat panel. Thank you to all the brave volunteers who brought us all together as a country, and thank you to those of you brave soldiers who will fight and have fought for our country. We are a free people because of your efforts.

Psychopath Registered: May. 01	I have finally decided on the sony HMD-A400/L based on the reviews and the $80 mail-in-rebate.... (mainly on the rebate). The monitor came out just around $300. Hopefully, it's as good as they say.
