Monitor Advice - Two 24" LCD (which ones) or a 30"

So, get 2x24's -

You can achieve your dreams, I am living proof, BEEFCAKE, BEEFCAKE!!!!!

If you get a tv tuner, you can use all that real-estate to watch the Yankees crash and burn AGAIN during the playoffs :smoker:

OH eat me.

Was thinking about that though, would be sweet to watch TV on my second screen

Can I split the coax going to my cable modem and get cable tv off it?

 

[madmatt]

Make sure the splitter is strong enough, 1000MHz or better.

 

[kcnychief]

Does that even work though? I thought I read somewhere that TV and Cable lines have different filters on them to avoid such a thing from being possible.

 

[madmatt]

One line comes into the house, from the utility pole. Do the math. I recommend a 2GHz splitter.

 

[Sazar]

I have a splitter, works fine for me.

Interesting, I'll check it out. Have actually looked into it before and haven't read much on TV Tuner cards that are compatible with Vista x64. But, maybe time to re-visit.

Oh.....my........god

I never have ever witnessed anything like this, ever. Simply ****ing amazing!!!

Once I get over it I'll take some pictures and post, sick!!!!!!!

Looking forward to seeing what you are on about

 

[kcnychief]

Have to wait and settle a bit. When I first got them on I was like "woah", then it threw me off a bit. Honestly it's a very big adjustment from using a single 22" - totally a different computing experience.

Spent some time adjusting ergonomics after that with my chair, desk layout and stand positions, much better already but still adjusting

Where is that image that says... This thread is worthless without pictures.

[madmatt]

Really cool stuff - the audio in was a nice bonus I hadn't initially noticed

Watched Lost online last night on one of these too, quite amazing

Thanks joytime, and now that I have them I would agree

especially since the 3008 have been yanked for some mysterious "technical issue" (glass availability?)
