I was too impatient to wait, just bought a $50 off $200 coupon from ebay for $9 and it is a crazy sweet deal.

 

[starwars7]

wait, how does customer appreciation discount week work? I hadn't heard anything about it.

Also, are you sure that they will accept the coupon since the item is already discounted?

The terms for the 12% Friends and Family are pretty loose. I don't see why it wouldn't apply to this one.

EDIT - The 12% is in-store only. The rebate is on-line only.

The rebate won't be valid then.

Bah, why are monitor manufacturers bother with 16:10 ratio? Why can't we stick with standard 4:3 and 16:9?

 

[starwars7]

well I got it yesterday and am using it now, what do you want to know about it? It works great, no ghosting I can see. Color looks good, no dead pixel. Power cable plugs right in, so no ac adapter. The back has a dvi port, vga port, and an audio port.

lol, what's dithering? As for color, the manual says 16.2M.

 

[starwars7]

have you played any games on it?

 

[beserker15]

Yeah, just CS:Source and Far Cry. It works great and there's no ghosting I can see.

 

[ROJAS]

If when playing games you see a good picture and no ghosting that usually indicates a very good refresh rate on the monitor. Sounds like you got a decent inexpensive monitor and with DVI input as well.

 

[starwars7]

awesome, do you think you could use it instead of a TV for watching movies etc...

 

[beserker15]

I wouldn't see why not. I don't have a tv in my room so it's gonna be used for dvd watching and tv watching with my tv tuner.
