Big Screen


We still haven't upgraded our TVs from the old CRT models, but I recently purchased a nice wide screen LCD monitor for the mancave my workspace. I've been mostly working at home and wanted something a bit bigger and brighter than my laptop display.

Having a big and bright monitor at the right height does make a big difference in my level of eye fatigue and neck strain. Having 1,764,000 pixels (1680 x 1050) allows me to have a ton of windows open at once. Very nice.

Plus, I can't believe how inexpensive monitors are. I purchased my Acer AL2016W for $189 with free shipping from NewEgg. That is about two full tanks of gas in the Silver Surfer.
