Is this the Soyo with the P-MVA panel (the link isn't working for me)? How often do you think the line shows up?

Is the Soyo 24" still available? Is it one of the ones with the PVA panel? Any dead pixels or other cosmetic issues?

Is this still available? edit: If so, dibs

is the touch still for sale?

I was going to say something about how dorky it would look to have a rack in your dorm and then I remembered that I have an AV rack in my (college) house. It's a sound road one (so it's a rack surrounded by foam inside an ATA case) which would actually probably be the perfect size for you. We...

Something with the 9300/9400 chipset (it looks like you already have an Intel chip). I have the Asus P5N7A-VM coming in on Monday from Newegg (an upgrade from a Biostar 7150 based board, mainly for fully hardware h.264 support and more than 4GB of RAM - I've started to do editing of Canon 5DmkII...

QFMFT I will be sad when it dies - the weight and button placement are perfect for me.

Comcast Digital Cable is already digital it's just SD. Your options for HD are 1) pay comcast for a HD box 2) if your TV has a QAM tuner run a cable into the coax connection on the TV or get an antenna and then you'll get HD locals (network) so no HD TNT or any of that. If you go with option 2...

Is Acrobat 9 really that slow for people? I have Pro set as default (which is more resource heavy than reader) and it opens very fast and is quite responsive. I do have a quad core machine, but even on my laptop which is a first generation centrino 2GHz machine it is much faster than earlier...

Using VGA on this panel is a bad idea, since as you've discovered it disables a lot of the settings. Also, I'm not sure, but I feel like when I was reading about it that it didn't support 1080p over VGA. AVS Forum has a good thread with calibration settings on it if you are interested. Mine are...

Really muffled normally means that instead of connecting the signal and the ground the left signal is getting connected to the right signal. The reason you sometimes get sound is that there is still a voltage difference between the two unless the signals are exactly the same (ie if you play the...

If the ebay cash back is still at 30% you might be able to get a better 32" panel for a similar price. I was able to get a Samsung LN32A550 for about $500 on ebay a few months ago. The Westinghouse is a decent panel, but if you compare it to one of the ones from a top tier brand you'll notice...

My crucial data is photographs which are backed up on two local drives as well as remotely over the internet. My test is to load the backup set into Lightroom and do a catalog integrity test - I haven't had any problems yet (knock on wood) so I've gotten kind of lazy about checking them and have...

Monitors are designed to be flat because a flat response is the most useful when you don't know what the target speakers will be. Home speakers, while the high end ones will be close to flat, in their design they make choice to make them sound warmer, have more bass, etc. based on the...
