IBM CPD-220. It can do 2048*1536 @ 75Hz (easily handle full 1080 HD) & is one of the only CRTs to have a DVI connection. £98 including delivery, should be here tomorrow
I have a 17" LCD & three 15" LCDs but they're simply too small & too low-res, plus the colour reproduction isn't good enough. I pulled a 20" Trinitron CRT & a 21" Diamondtron CRT from a skip last year but whilst they both have small faults, they reminded me how much I prefer CRTs to LCDs. So as I just sold an iBook I found in the same skip for £76 on eBay I figured I would put the money towards a new monitor!
I did. I equated "I've gotten so many noise complaints" as disrespectful to your neighbors.
But then surely every channel would get the same feed? I.e. it wouldn't really be surround sound but the same thing coming out of every speaker?
I was looking at one of those, but then before I was gonna pull the trigger on a set, a 24" Sony GDM-FW900 landed in my lap for free. I dont really see the point of the DVI port, as my buddy has one of those, and its a DVI-A port IIRC. IBM does make an amazing monitor. Hope ya enjoy. The 19" IBM that I have (P97) has been awesome since I got it new a few years back.
Bought a used copy of Kafka's Complete Stories off Amazon Marketplace for my English class and pre-ordered a limited run, autographed copy of Sun Kil Moon's new album "April" (from the record label site). It contains a second bonus disc with tracks only available on the limited run album until a separate EP is released in a couple months

Yummy, I want a few more SM57's. I have one and I use it for a snare mic and guitar, but I find it a hassle having to constantly remove it from the mount and re-position it every time.
Havent gotten pics of my last haul yet, but for 5 bucks from my old store (Radioshack) I got the remanets of the Internet Signup Computer.

I bought Hitman too! I may buy "No Country For Old Men" too. I wasn't crazy about I Am Legend tho.
I will hate you for the rest of my life for landing a free FW900! Still, I actually prefer 4:3 to widescreen & the IBM was half the price of the cheapest FW900 I've ever seen on eBay. Hopefully it'll arrive today

You can check this link for the helmet, but Master replicas is not licensed any more so you have to find a helmet on Ebay. Mine version was only released in the UK, but my local comic book shop was able to find me one online and had it shipped so I did not get killed with price.
Matt...
Oh wow, I really want to see this!!
I've been thinking of something to make one this summer, has to be something creative though.
