My Monitor Bit the Dust - Need Suggestions

My favorite quality/value monitors are the Samsung 900NF, Viewsonic PF790, and AV-195TF (I am a hardcore aperture-grille fan). Although if you have the money to spend, I'd get a Dell P991 or a Sony CPD-G400 (both ~$500). For the former 3 though, you can get a good deal at Onvia with $25 coupon...

What resolution do you think our eyes see the world in?

>Resolution doesn't apply to human sight as there are no pixels out there Not true. The pixels in our eyes are the rods and cones in our retina. Most relevant to our discussion are the cones. The cones are all packed into a very densly packed array in a tiny pit in the retina called the...

Who's a good systems vendor ? (Dell, Gateway, HP , IBM, Compaq,etc)

Don't mean to be repetitive, but once again, Dell. I went shopping around for about 3 months before buying my computer, and no other manufacturer provides quality parts at such a good price. I compared Micron, Quantex, Gateway, Cybermax, and probably some other vendors that I don't recall...

Video card to TV?

What are my options for converting my 15-pin VGA signal into an analog output that can go to my TV, either by coaxial cable or by RCA-type connector? Or even S-video connection? I have heard of scan converters, but is there anything else that can do the trick? I want to play DVDs on my TV...
