New monitor is soooo big

[eggyuk]

My new 24" Samsung Syncmaster 2493HM monitor arrived yesterday and boy is it huge. Only just fits on my desk. Problem is I dont know what to do with all the extra real estate I've got now. Minesweeper looks awful small and lonely on the screen.

It's only a baby monitor, trust me after a few days it wont seem so big

 

[skunksmash]

lol....... enjoy!!


i remember my upgrade from a 17'' CRT to my 20'' sammy, it was BLISS, so much easier on the eyes too...

I went from a 15" to a 22" widescreen. What a difference it makes. I know that "I can see more" feeling. It's all good

Now I really need a 2nd monitor again ... ugh.

I'm thinking of buying a 24", but not sure if I should wait for a touch one for Windows 7. How much was yours, and is it HD?

 

[grimreaper]

you will see that what you have now, will only get bigger and bigger.
I went from 20"-22" dual 22", then 24", then i went stupid, bought a 40" as a computer monitor, then 46", and if that wasn't big enough, I'm currently using a 52" 1080P.
Working on a 65"...lmao

heh - I don't upgrade monitors that often - If I could afford it I'd have a pair of 1080p monitors, but as it is I have a pair of 22" WSs...and I am loving them.

johnG, you have to grab the final screen to complete the setup.....

1 more 22'' would give you panoramic gaming!!! , i would love another 2x 20'' monitors for my setup..

but alas my lonely 260 would burn out in about 5mins

All those monitors was over the course of 3 yrs+...the 52" is huge, i know

 

[XxKOLOHExX]

lol i got a new 32" monitor/tv like 3 days ago and i am in heaven movies and what not are so clear LOL

 

[jackdelamare]

Yeah but how could you use a PC with that size monitor? I guess you have a wireless keyboard and mouse and sit quite far away? I couldn't do that. I'm thinking of getting a 26" I've found, but should I?

Hello Jack.

Get the biggest one you can get; I've been using a 47" for almost a year. I've got it on a wall and I sit about six feet away from it, my "main" monitor is on a desk to my right; where I control the mouse, the k/b is on my lap.......I love it, it's got me spoiled, now I wouldn't want it any other way. I use PS/2 connections; I just use extension cables.














Later :shock: Ted

The first day I got my two 22"s, I had no idea what to do with all the extra space. The next day I'm thought to myself "I need more space!"

I know that feeling, I thought 4 screens was overkill but now I could really do with 6
