    I can't believe that. Even a Sempron 3000+ with 512MB of RAM and integrated graphics can run High-Def...

    Celeron D at 2.6 ghz and Intel 845 graphics. It just can't handle it.

    Windows or Linux? You'd be surprised at the difference.

    The NEC is proper High def, the Samsung isn't - don't worry about the lack of crappy speakers, with a 46" you should have proper ones anyway.

    Indeed, and for a TV that size, it matters.

    Hey Rob,
    You need to change the name of your computer! After the performance the Reds put on last night against the Dodgers, it must be depressing your computer! ROFL!! Oh, if your looking for your computer, it must be hiding it's head in shame under the bed! ROFLMAO!!

    So I just opened up the monitor and it's HUGE!!! Just so everyone knows I'm selling these for 950(shipping included) and they retail for 1600 on Newegg.com.

    They will be up on eBay soon. I got three of 'em!

    Sorry if this is kinda against the rules or something. Oh and Sam, I have decided to sell three of these and my Dell and buy one of these for myself!

    Russ
    you dont have to tell me they looked pitaful lastnight as they are right now. Harang just gave up a 2 run HR. thats why its (my puter) is called The big Red Machine, not this little red engine that could....lol im sure you know of the REAL big red machine...

    as for the monitor/tv i was only jokeing haven some fun with boozer. i would never buy something like that for my computer. like GM said it would be a TV not a monitor.

    Oh well, if anyone wants one they are here. Hopefully I can sell enough of these to make some decent money and afford one for myself.

    boozer you don't have links to the THESE in your post so we can't look at what your looking at. :p

    Robert I knew it! :p You big teaser you..

    Got a slight dilemma here...

    Rebuilt one of my work computers and for some reason it won't go into windows. I've removed everything but the HDD, video card, and the ODD's and the ODD's are next from the system. It will post the BIOS and I can play with that but when it goes to the XP "slider" it gets stuck every time. I can go into Safe Mode and play around there but as soon as I reboot and try to enter the "Windows" User screen it stops! I'll remove the ODD's then replace the IDE cables if need be. It's truly silly, all I did was replace the case and the psu.. NOTHING else.. gggrrrrrrrrrrrrr.........
