because I've been such a good boy this year..

.. Santa has brought me one of these (early of course):




BenQ FP241W 24in Widescreen Monitor - TrustedReviews


and I have to say - it is superb..


I was looking to upgrade from a 19" to a 22" - and then someone on here said about the 24" monitors.. There is quite a price hike between the 22" monitors and the 24s.. The 24" monitors start with the the Samsung SM245B at about £300.. I spent a little more on this as I wanted an HDMI port and composite ports as well as DVI and VGA.

Its suitable for gaming (6ms grey to grey), as a wall mounted HD media screen, graphics work or simple day to day tasks.

Sobs.

About 6 maybe 7 years ago I bought one of them new fangled 17" Hi-Res flat screen monitors. Set me back best part of £600!

Sobs more.
