High time I posted my setup -although the majority of you guys put me to shame ;)

I have the Samsung 940MV and that can double up as a television/monitor.

The Apple Cinema displays look impressive but with no built in tv tuner or scart leads socket for my sky box or some other devices it could not do what i needed it to do so i opted for the model that i have above.

Thankyou, I already made a comparison chart in Word though. The ACD is double the price, and has worse specs, though it looks sweeter...:D

I know about the 940 MV, but since I want to connect it to my MB too though, I'd like the higher resolution, and IMO, the 205BW looks sweeter, and I don't really have any need for a TV Tuner. I know it has no speakers, but a friend of mine just gave me a couple of Samsung speakers from his 21" Samsung screen...:D

I'm going with the 205BW (the prices are in DKK). I can't find this ONOFF, but I got a good offer for 2950 DKK plus 110 DKK shipping at www.kelkoo.dk. A total of around $400.:D

BTW, thanks alot for your help brikeh.;)
 
The 940MWis the same resolution as my 1440x900 MBP so it suits me fine.
Your comparison was interesting although i had been under the impression that the higher response time would indicate that something was better rather than a slower one but i guess that i was wrong on that.
It is all down to what you need at the end of the day. The Apple also has other features that you didn't mention as they were not relevant to your needs but obviously if you were looking for USB ports and firewire ports the Samsung would not be the way to go.
I hope that you are happy with your purchase.

Thanks.
The ACD's have a response time of 14 ms, which means it takes the displa fourteen miliseconds to update the display image, while it only takes this Samsung 6 miliseconds. The fastest displays in the world has 2 ms, but that means you would need a framerate of 500 fps to reach that:p

I actually before considered excactly the 940MV before, as you can see here (3rd post), but despite the price being $150 more, I'd really like the higher res. for more Windows, and smaller pixels. Thanks for your help anyway, and BTW brikeh, seen my sig?:D

How do you like that mouse?
I love it. It has great battery life, decent range, and feels very comfortable in my hand.

There is one thing that I wish I could change about it, though, and that is the way it turns itself off after a few minutes of inactivity. Because of this I have to shake it around for a second or two to get it to wake up again. But I suppose it's worth it if it allows me to go on for a couple months without recharging.
 
Get the wireless...

welshandrew said:
Very nice.

I've been thinking of getting a wireless keyboard & mouse, are they any good?


I use the wireless Apple KB/Mouse with my iMac and my ibook when it is on the iCurve. Works great and most important...no wires...makes for nice clean set-up.

The wireless keyboard is brilliant, and the wireless mouse is good (although a wireless mighty mouse would be so cool)

Thanks, I think I'll get a wireless keyboard first, as it's the most urgent - whenever I turn my iMac around to lie on the bed and watch some DVD's it nearly pulls my keyboard off the desk! :D

Could you please tell me where you got that wooden desk your G5 is on? Also, where did you get that little glass table with the sections for your consoles? Thanks!

The desk was from Office World which got took over by Staples so they no longer sell that table but they do sell one a bit like it but it looks crap. The glass shelf is made by Sona, got it from Argos. :)

The fan !!! Ooohhh .. i gotta have that fan !! where did you get it !??!?!? :eek:

You might not when you see the price :p It's made by black and blum.

count chocula said:
he just doesnt have the dock connectors plugged in.

Correct. Why would I want the wires showing? :) I don't even use my wireless keyboard and mouse any more as I use a Mighty Mouse.
 
What the hell is black and Blum?? Never heard of it?? :confused:

Edit: Found it! 127.50$..."Propello"
