New Monitor SAMSUNG 941BW 19" DVI Widescreen LCD Monitor
CA3LE replied to CA3LE's topic in General Discussion
haha, hell yeah I almost had to get it because ever since I got this widescreen laptop my desktop has been bugging me. It looked all out of place. But I thought that the widescreen monitors only came in like 22"+ and shit and were at least $600 -- but when I saw this one I was like "oooohhhh, that shit is coming to my house! It's ON like Donky KizOnG!" hahaha -- that mofo was paid for like 2 minutes after I first looked at it. I just made sure it had DVI, nice 4ms time and good ratios and I burnt through that transaction. You just can't go wrong with samsung! And with Newegg taking care of the business end no worries... ever! -D -
Ohhhhh, I love it! Now everything I own is finally all widescreen, laptop... TV and now my desktop has joined the darkside --- ahhhhhh. I had seriously JUST got the 19" Samsung 940N but my older sister called me and was asking me about LCD monitors, I went to pull up some prices for her and saw the widescreen 941BW and fell in love. So I made a deal with my sister (I sold her my brand new 940N for $140, hella good deal lol) and picked up the 941BW. Oh man, it's beautiful (just like every other Samsung monitor I've ever owned... and like all the billions I've got for people I build computers for). As usual with samsung ZERO dead pixels. Seriously, does Samsung EVER have a dead pixel? I've (no joke) ordered at least 15-20 Samsung monitors this year and not even one has had even a single dead pixel or any problem for that matter. The only beef I would have with them is their stands, you can't raise/lower the screen, you can only tilt it... but it happens to work well with my desktop situation. Otherwise I would buy a new stand for it, but for the price I paid ($219 -- it's now back up to $229 but there is a $40 rebate which I'll never send in, lol) I can't complain about the stand, you can pick those up fairly cheap... and as I said, I won't need it for my setup. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16824001088 Just another product that I HIGHLY reccomend, newegg is the shit! As always they got my order to me crazy fast and without any problems. by the way, you guys will notice that I post allot of newegg links and talk about products like this often... newegg is NOT one of my affiliates and testmy.net is not compensated... although for as much traffic as I've sent them they should be paying me.. hahahaha --- I'm just a very happy newegg customer, just like every other newegg customer. they ROCK! WOOT!!

yea.. I enabled attachments again. I had to take it down for a couple of days, back to normal now though
-
what's funny is a couple of days after I posted that.. it all magically went back to normal. After about 5 reboots it just went back to normal one day. Oh well, I guess I'll never know why it happened I can't wait for vista!

that's when it's time to start looking into a fiber solution

This feature is being disabled temporarily, I'm working on some things (long story, lol)

I see what you're talking about now... yeeeah, that's the last theme that I make on my laptop -- it's not nearly that bright on my laptop The greenhouse themes were also made on my laptop, you will notice that those are way too bright also ... I'll just make sure to make any new themes on my desktop PC where the color scheme is accurate -D
-
it's a good thing that I have a theme system and give you the option to change it.. haha just for thanksgiving -- if you think that annoying you should see the Christmas theme

Has anyone heard of this ever? I went to log into my office PC and ALL my personal settings were GONE. Another account I have on the computer is fine, but my account is basically like a fresh install. All the way down to the media player options have been reset. It's very wierd and really lame, luckily I store all my (my documents) files on a fileserver that is shared between all my computers and none of that was lost. I didn't even notice the problem until I went to login via remote desktop, I thought at first that the remote desktop was just showing me a messed up desktop and I thought that when I went to login in person it would be fine... well, I logged into the computer in person and yep, it was all gone. I'm not even going to mess with it at all, I figure Vista is out really soon so I'll just install Vista and forget about it... but has anyone else had this happen or have you heard about it happening. AWWWWW MAN, is Vista really coming out on January 30th 2007? Lame, I was hoping it would come out for Christmas this year... stupid ass Microsoft, lol.

not too bad right now Oh yeah, something really weird happened to my office PC, I went to login and ALL my personal settings were GONE. -- I'm going to start a thread about it.

oh.. and a SS of the software...

haha oh, also here are the test results from the Samsung M500 when connected to my laptop... in the same area where I took the Palm Treo 700wx tests... so far this is my best score and here is the average I still haven't found a reeeeally good EV-DO area, I guess the really good areas are still patchy but if I get 300K+ everywhere I'll be happy enough.. at least it will give my laptop coverage when I can't find a wireless network to get on and that's all that matters... at that speed I can still get things taken care of and that's all that really matters.

Well, you be the judge

Some of you may remember me talking about a palm 700wx I got --- I highly recommended it... and it was way too soon, now I'll revisit that review original post is at >> http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-16781 This is an update to this thread. In the long run I DO NOT reccomend this phone. I had nothing but issues with it. It was AWESOME the first few days and then it was all down hill from there. Aside from being a brick in my pocket (which would have been fine if it was working... but since it was dead most of the time it was litterally a brick) it was mad buggy. Programs would freeze all the time. Now, you would think that any electronic tool would have a power key, especially one that needs force reboots as much as this BRICK but nooooo there is something that appears to be a power key but all it does is turn off the phone function... there is NO WAY to completely power this thing down unless you take out the battery.... which I had to do many times a day. The best way I could describe the feel of the phone is "a PDA with phone emulation...". Almost all phones have a nice hardware feel to their operation but the palm 700w/700wx feels very, very software (trust me, I'm making sense if you're following). Their were many cool features that this phone had but in the end it wasn't worth it. Especially since I couldn't hardly get incoming calls by the time I returned it. I ended up toughing it out till the day the new Samsung M500 came out and I haven't looked back. The Samsung M500 not only is less than 1/2 the weight (2.6oz vs 6oz) but it actually works too (lol). The Samesung M500 is a seriously awesome phone where they packed a massive amount of features into THE smallest EV-DO phone I've ever seen.... and I've had it for a while now with ZERO problems so I can safely recommend it without coming back a few weeks later to say oops -- So I went from the biggest phone to the smallest phone and am now just using the phone as a modem for my laptop, bluetooth is awesome... just leave the phone in your pocket and go-to-town. SO... IMO Smartphones STILL have a ways to go before they will win my pocket as a home. They are still just PDAs with phone software and are totally buggy pieces of shit. Get the M500, it's so light that you'll think that the battery is missing... it makes the KRZR look like one of the phones from 90210 -D
