I think my monitor is on the outs.
« on: September 30, 2006, 04:30:49 PM »
Sucks :(

The damn thing is just over 2 years old, and not it's going all crazy when I use it. The left and right borders keep pushing in and out about 1/8th of an inch, and it's terribly annoying.

Damn you, Dell. Damn you straight to hell!

How the hell am I supposed to pay for a new monitor with the holidays coming up and new gaming systems coming out?

Monitors are dirt cheap if you want something to get you by. Don't be a hussy.

I've got a real crappy backup monitor I'll be using for the indefinite future, luckily. Thank goodness my work was tossing out a bunch of old CRTs over the summer.

Viz, if I had the money for a monitor, I'd buy one. As it is right now, I can't spend any money on myself from my upcoming paychecks if I want to be able to buy stuff for the holidays and whatnot.

I need to buy a new monitor too. I'm thinking about a 20" Widescreen LCD in between $200 and $300 (and sub 8ms) but my attention keeps getting diverted to the $600+ ones with native 1920x1200 res...

haha, I know what you mean :(

I'm trying to think now if there's any way for me to possibly swing for a new monitor. The Dell 20" LCDs look nice, but those 2407's are butter. Too bad they're so friggin expensive, though :(

I would have got something a little bigger, but for some reason the prices rise quite sharply post-19".
