Gearbox selling computers for dell?

he looks like a character from seventh heaven or one of those shows on wb that has a bunch of teens and only 40 year olds watch

Yeah well this Dell deal is handled in a pretty sleazy way. Questions like "What did you spend your annual bonus on?" were for example only displayed for the employes who identically answered "DELL Ultrasharp 24'' TFT 10024i1084012840812x PiXMA blabalala"... things like that annoy me.

People scoff, but that really is what most people spent their bonus on. It's a fucking swet monitor.

yeah, i'd get that 30" if i had the money.

The thirty inch is actually shit. It doesn't come with the variety of inputs that the 24 inch does (thus no hooking up your dvd player or consoles). It doesn't have the card reader. And it's dual-DVI, so you're gonna need a card to support it. The 24 (while smaller) is still ridiculously big and has so many wonderful features that it's totally worth the $750 price point. You're basicaly getting a monitor and a TV.

Now if I have a card with dual-dvi out and don't use any of the other options, would it be a wise investment?

a wiser option would be two of these:

My cousin has a dual DVI out Nvida card of some kind, but he runs it on his MacPro (he's film/video editor). And he uses it to power dual Dell 20" flatscreens. He got them both for about $360 each from Dell. I think they are the same basic screen as the Apple 20" cinema display.

I think I may be upgrading to some Dell widescreens soon.

Anyway, my current ATI card is 1 DVI, 1 analog output but the analog as my secondary monitor is like looking at a bucket of puke compared to the digital.

So get a dual dvi imho.

I've got 2 2001FPs right now, but I'm tempted to consolidate to a larger widescreen sometime down the road.
