Default My new setup!!!

Well here it is:







Just bought that Samsung 24" Widescreen LCD. It's 1080p supported with the highest res @ 1920x1080.

I decided to setup the dual monitor thing, and i must say working on Photoshop and Mathematica has become much better.

Pretty cool Lazer. I've mucked about with a dual-monitor setup myself before, though I don't have a spare monitor to do it full time. I can definitely see the advantages and was impressed by just now easy it is to do.

I used to dual monitor when I had both my Trinitrons but they're just so big I can't bother to heft them with me when I move.
Right now my setup is just my pc, a 21 inch Trinitron CRT (GDM-F500R, which is sick for a CRT), some 5.1 speakers, and my 360 hooked up to the vga and SPDIF on my XFi, PS2 hooked up to the vid capture. And it's all using the internet I have over a 24 port hub routing from my computer and its 3 network ports.

What's your front audio ports? Looks almost exactly like my XFi panel but it looks like it says Audigy.. I didn't realize they made it for those. And nice monitor, btw.. I really need to move on to LCDs but I just can't afford what I want yet.

Also, my computer and monitor are all on the floor because I lack a desk to put them on.

We've steadily phased out all the bulky TVs and monitors here, they're just so heavy and bulky. The lack of a TV in Lazer's pics did make me wonder about the consoles. So they all essentially go to the monitor?

I believe the Samsung monitor has various inputs, I was looking at ones similar to it a while back.

No, actually they are hooked up to a TV just to the right of the desk which isn't in the picture. Though i am about to get a cable to be able to plug in my PS3 via HDMI to DVI-D into the new LCD monitor. As far as this monitor having multiple inputs, it does not. Those usually cost more and have lower brightness and contrast ratio.
