Subject: It's just not fair....
| Hi all,
|
| Today my girlfriend received an email from someone at Philips.
Apparently
| she's won a 109P monitor in a competition we don't remember entering. Me,
| being a suspicious type, checked the headers and the message looks
| genuine :)
|
| Looking at the specs, this is one impressive-looking monitor. It's a 19"
CRT
| (18" viewable), and it will do 1600x1200 at 85Hz no sweat. It even has a
| 5500K colour temperature setting. This thing craps all over the Viewsonic
| 17" I've got, not to mention the generic 15" she has at the moment.
|
| The cheap S3 graphics board in her machine (actually owned by me:) won't
| come close to driving it to its capabilities.
|
| To say I'm jealous is putting it mildly! I guess I should start thinking
| seriously about that PC upgrade... I can just imagine that thing running
Gimp
| on a dual-head setup with the image on the 19" at 5500K, and the controls
| on the 17"... drool...
|
| Cheers,
|
|
