Does the Samsung = good apply to monitors as well?
I'm quite tempted to pick one of these, but I was wondering if any of you had any opinions.

In my experience, yes. Somewhere deep in this thread someone hated theirs though but I don't remember what it was.

I just had a flick through and it was AceAceBaby and his SM226BW (may not have the model number correct as I didn't copy and paste it like a sensible person). There's a thread about backlight bleeding on AV Forums, so I'll look into it a bit more and I might go and take a look at one in the flesh when I get a chance.

For reference mine are a SyncMaster 940BW, and a SyncMaster 2032MW.

Both have an amazing picture quality, and I don't regret buying either.

Bwah ha ha. Mysterious internets.

I didn't have a backlight problem with the Samsung, just the absolutely appalling colour banding.

I found Richer Sounds man to be nice, helpful, willing to do discounts and little deals and not pushy on sales at all.

All your telly are belong to us!

Ace, are you a girl?

AceAceBaby · **Posted:** Mon May 19, 2008 15:26

I am a meat popsicle.

CUS · **Posted:** Mon May 19, 2008 15:27

You have a stick in you? So, a girl then. That's cleared that up.

Mimi · **Joined:** 27th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 25594

I still have no idea whether you are a girl or boy.

'meat popsical'?

AceAceBaby has a nice shade lilac shade of text, and that's all that matters to me.

Or is it fuschia?

Indigo, apparently. Though it looks a little more eggplant on this monitor.

Should have known I'd get it wrong. Sorry Ace (if I did get it wrong, I'm still not too sure and was your member title always that?)

Aw, thanks for the thought, anyway, GJ, but I wouldn't have had a video machine to play it on. I'll let you into a secret... I have brookeback Mountain on DVD. Yes, I do. But there I something about watching a movie on TV. I am less likely to watch it on TV because if it is on DVD I think, well, I am a bit tired, I can watch it anytime, and never do, but if it is on TV I think 'it's on, must watch it now or miss it' so I make the time. Brokeback Mountain can beak our heart, it is so lovely, I have never seen The Patriot, though.

I don't have a video recorder (or player).

I got me a DVD recorder with a HDD though, I would have just burnt it straight to disc.

I'd pay good money for Brooke Burke's Mountains on DVD.

Well, I think it was JohnMid. So I'd still think 'his'

Ahem. Of course, you don't know if they don't have a really good reason for changing their name and maybe they'd like it not mentioned again (see my edit above).

Are we running some sort of witness protection program now? :ninja:

Change that 'ness' to 'less' and yeah, maybe.

I agree... mainly for the shock value of CUS being funny.
