:D:D:DI'm on top of the world today because this arrived! That my friends is a 19" TFT flatscreen, a mere 5ms delay, 700:1 contrast ratio, 160 deg viewing angle. Go and buy one now from Microdirect, £120 which i think is an absolute bargain... even if I did need a new graphics card (just had a rubbish little integral one before, you don't need a particularly high power one) to use it to it's full potential.

I watch a lot of DVDs on my computer so I've been wanting a widescreen monitor for ages, plus my desk is really narrow so my old CRT took up most of it and had sit at an angle - not good for posture.

Also - show's what covers my desk most of the time - there are two random props in the photo! My time machine, and also my cheap plastic beaker and coin for practicing infusion :lol:

No need - we've got a massive TV in the lounge that mostly get's used for Tekken Tag Tournament these days, although I'm losing a lot these days because my housemates practice whilst I'm at uni :evil:

Thats a sweet looking monitor man! I've got a 19" TFT flatscreen monitor too and I love watching dvds on it especially the Simpsons cause the picture is so sharp!

The old Doves thread! I'm stuck indoors with a LOT of stuff to get through. I really cannot wait until June, it's going to be a lot of fun!

For the older members here, I am planning on resurrecting Night Owls tonight (yes, stuck inside on a Saturday evening... not fun)... :twisted:

Sets about gathering various magickal materials and an Urn of Osiris off eBay... :D

I'm going to search my house until I finally find the charger for my camcorder. It's been missing for three weeks and I've been going crazy because I can't tape any of my tricks!
