My Beautiful New Monitor and Web Design
Samsung 940Be
I recently purchased a Samsung 940Be which is a 19-inch LCD monitor. Thanks to the falling prices of LCD monitors and Newegg’s low prices, I got a really good deal. I was originally going to wait until the holiday season, but some time in the last couple of months, there was significant price drop. As with all my electronics/computer purchases, I did a lot of research online comparing features and reading reviews. Man, I LOVE this thing. The viewable space is HUGE and it is so BRIGHT. So much more working space, it makes my web development work much easier too.
My Post-Thanksgiving Review
Well I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. My post is basically an update on what’s been going on lately, it’s a little all over the place.
The Long Trip from Ithaca to NYC
First I have to mention my crappy bus ride from Ithaca. What a LONG ride. The bus left Collegetown at around 6:20 pm and at 7:00 pm we got stuck behind some accident for 2 whole hours. I think this is the 3rd time I’ve gotten stuck behind an accident on trip between Ithaca and NYC - what rotten luck. Then about an hour outside the city, the bus driver stops at a McDonald’s, where half the bus gets off to get food. We’re over 2 hours behind schedule and you’re going to stop and waste more time?! The one good thing is that I ended up in one of the back rows and the bus didn’t fill up so I had 2 seats to myself so I could spread my legs out more comfortably.
I Need A 19-inch LCD Monitor
I can’t wait to get a 19″ LCD monitor. My current monitor is a 15″ LCD and it’s just too small and too old. I’m waiting until the holiday season kicks in at full speed so I can get a good deal. I might wait until after Christmas to get a clearance deal. Don’t know yet, I’m just going to see what kind of discounts come up. I would really benefit from a larger monitor. When I’m doing web or graphic design work, it really helps if I have a larger resolution and larger workspace. I’d also be able to enjoy movies, TV shows, and video games more. So I see it as a pretty worthwhile investment.
