Nice setup actually. Lots of spaghetti under that desk

I like the Samsung flatpanels too, they're great.

Street,

I knew you were kidding!

Shit, those flat panels cost more when I bought them then to carpet the ENTIRE house [God forbid]

I know what you mean. Our last home was built in 1913 and had hardwood floors. They are stronger than ceramic tile. I know you have the nice high ceilings there too.

Hardwood floors, high ceilings, a trading station that's , in mktwiz's term, the bomb... and a Subway down the street.

You are livin' life large bro! I miss it there man. Great people, great food...

Sigh

PS - Almonds??? nitro? Is that what the kids are calling it these days?

geez,

If I thought I was going to take so much heat for my bong - ah I mean my almond container, I would have removed it from the picture...

LOL

Now that is funny!

My wife says she would. It surpised me. I mean after all, who would want to leave this happening hotbed of excitement?

Leave some for the rest of tomorrow nitro. Lord knows with your setup, if you set that thing on autotrade IB and TS will have to dedicate servers just for you.

Dell uses them - but this must not be what you had in mind when you said "lesser-named."

Im kind of a LCD veteran.
Ive used many LCD expecially newer ones.

here is tips for buying LCDs. *from catalog spec*

Never buy any LCD has lower response time than 25ms
Especially if you watch DVD or pay 3D games then go with 20ms

For movies, along with fast response time, LCD must have high brightness ratio something like 250cd/square-M (prefer 300cd/square-M)

Higher Contrast Ratio is better also. Find something more than 400:1

The best LCD Ive ever seen is from EIZO(NANAO).

SHARP(dont buy LL-T17A1C)
,Samsung(Dont Buy less than 17inches models 18-19inches models are good)
,and SONY(I really liked X51 and X72)
are pretty good.

not popular than the others but ADTEC is not bad.

Im not sure about viewsonic, ive never used it before
