Quote from: Whitey;175560I've just ordered one of these as my birthday present to myself, we've got one at work and it looks amazing.  Can't wait to get Photoshop up on it :D
Should be with me on Tuesday.


WoW  I love it !!!!

Thanks for the heads-up guys this is one superb monitor.

I love the inputs, the card reader and the spare usb ported.

It's sleek and stylish - just like I'm not :D

I have to eat a big slice of humble pie here.

Having used my widescreen now for a month, I don't know how I ever worked without it!

It's superb and I stand corrected....

PS. Thanks again for the heads-up to the Dell Ultrasharp 2407WFP - it rocks.

Good to see that you found your path away from the dark side Pen!

And the 2407WFP is indeed nice... but when I see the pictures of TL's 30" version I can't help think that mine look more like a stamp or something :sideways:

I did promise some piccies of my new monitor....... 30 inches of goodness



....and with a piece of A4 paper to show scale.



WoW (and other gaming) at 2560 x 1600 is visually awesome.  Work-wise I usually work with mutiple applications open and can therefore have at least 2 sheets of A4 side by side on view with all the taskbars etc onscreen too.  As I am running SLI I cannot run a second monitor (without a third graphics card) but this single monitor has more than replaced the two I used to use.

nice for that big a screen, mine has 0.282... was very affraid that would pixilate the image on the screen, but saw a screen today with something like 0,9 which wasnt really a prop
