Get a decent monitor then ffs. What do you expect for 25 quid and a box of Marlboro

Got my lovely iiyama VM Pro 451 yesterday, would of had it the day before if any one was in to sign for it

 

[Embattle]

I've still got some settings to fiddle with since the picture needs slight adjusting.

p00f

 

[Testin da Cable]

wha?

 

[WPKenny]

another update for no one in particular...

They came round with a third monitor today and took the other one away. This one seems okay. Fingers crossed.

 

[Testin da Cable]

third one ay? woo

 

[WPKenny]

Well, since monday everything seems fine with the monitor. I even splashed out on a BNC monitor cable and the picture quality has improved a little...easier on the eyes at 1600x1200.
Anyway...monitor good, kenny happy.

 

[Summo]

Hm... I have a monitor BNC cable. Didn't know it improved quality. Must try tomorrow...

I have access to a SONY 20" moniker, it's pretty old though bought for about £250 2nd hand a couple of years ago, it'll do 1260x1024 ok, but 1600x1200 just looks too out of focus.

 

[Testin da Cable]

gah, I have to wait getting my new kit

 

[Embattle]

Me waits for samsung 181T

 

[Scooba Da Bass]

whoo, I've got a new Sony 21" screen wating for me at work, whoo!

Hmm, i'm after a new Monitor, preferably a 17" one, anyone know any CHEAP Online places where i can buy one - UNDER £100 ?

I have my eye on the Reliys (sp?) TE770 which is £90

But obviously i want cheaper stuff..

Any recommendations??

They have decreased a lot but its limited to the very expensive models.

One step up on TDC, get a Vision Master Pro 451 19" 1600x1200 as it comes with a 4 port USB hub

Cost about £360 from www.dabs.com

whatever you do DON'T buy one of these...

they are too dodgy for words, iiyama acknowledged an issue with the built in speakers/usb hub (not shielded) yet continue to flog them... I had 4 from iiyama over the period of 2 months, finally forced them into a free upgrade

I'm a bit late joining this thread but - my preference is Sony Trintrons. I have a couple of 19" black ones on my desk running at 3200x1200.

Its the daddy for designing and coding.

Think I'll try the same soon.

I don't like monitors with built-in idiocy. It's a monitor, not a boom-box heh.

I got it coz the hub not the speakers.
