| 1131312 | 2010-08-27 10:14:00 | Thanks SG and Gary. The desktops being posted this time somehow look enormous. My screen is 18" and it must be a different aspect ratio as well, because these posted desktops look like a cinerama screen compared with mine! My Phillips cost a b... fortune when I bought it, but now it looks like a clunker!!! Still, I have had umpteen years out of it. What are people recommending these days for a brand of monitor? |

| 1131313 | 2010-08-27 10:26:00 | What are people recommending these days for a brand of monitor? Depends what you want it to have. i brought this (viewsonic),, because its got VGA, Hdmi and DVI. And Audio in and out. I use HDMI for the Xbox, DVI for the computer. And I can connect the audio out from the case, to audio in and plug headphones into audio out |

| 1131315 | 2010-08-27 10:35:00 | Thanks SG. I understand Viewsonic is quite a good brand. I won't ever have an XBox or anything like that, but i would like: 1. more real estate (would enjoy two monitors for work, but that would require buying a new desk as well...) 2. crisp resolution/wide screen 3. audio out to my headphones or Altec Lansing speakers - if I could change over connections from the monitor rather than scrabbling around the back of the pc case, that would be good. Thanks - apologies for temporarily hijacking the thread. |

| 1131316 | 2010-08-27 10:44:00 | I wouldnt bother connecting speakers to audio out on a monitor. Its too tinny. Its not too bad with headphones on this tho. Altho the headphones I've got are pretty crappy. I'll be replacing them soon |
