I got a 27'' monitor, :) :ph34r: :P :lol: . Its kinda huge, so ill probably use it as a tv and get another 21'' or 23'' monitor. Anyone else use a 27''? its a killer on the eyes.

I've been looking at them as I really need a new screen atm this one I can't adjust the brightness much, but before I buy a new screen I want a one touch backup and a Cannon PowerShot S2 IS :) Plus this time of year is not the best time to buy.

So show us a pic of it, or a url to one online. How much did you pay for it?

It says it can go up to 1366 x 768, but I made it go to resolutions above 2000x1500.

Its called Maxent-MX-26X3. It was about 1,000 to 1,200 dollars, and sorry its 26'' not 27, (doh)

1366x768 is a very small resolution for such a big monitor, I'm glad that wasn't actually right and you can get 2000x1500 out of it. That thing is sweet.

2000x1500 still doesn't seem much, its double what I get on my 19inch but still with a screen that size I would of thought more 2500 res

30inch cinema Mac screens go to 2560 x 1600

I did see a mac at the store too, but I didnt think it would look nice. A mac monitor, with a custom computer tower running windows. It would be like a advertising machine lol.

The other monitor im going to get is either going to be one of these two;

Lol. i normally run on a 19" widescreen, although my family did just buy a 42" panasonic high def tv, like the best one out there, for our new lounge (we just re-decorated it) and when it got here, the lounge wasnt ready for it, so i got to have it in my bedroom for 1.5 weeks, and it has computer input, it was amazing, so big, i got the resolution to like 5000 x 3200 or something like that, cant quite remember, but i had 4 web browser windows open next to each other, all displaying different sites, all at 100%. it was brilliant, the best week and a half ever, but having a 26" monitor all the time, must be brilliant!

I have a big fat ugly 17" screen, goes to 1280x1024 resolution, Too bad there isnt any wallpaper that size, you have to make it...that would be one interesting wallpaper, if you do make one, post it here lol. I have seen the 30" monitors and they hang on the wall, and they goto resolution like 3500-4000 lol..
