My first was the HP w1907 (1440x900), then i bought another with Christmas cash, then bought another one during the summer, where i then traded my 32" hdtv for a TH2Go.

A Viewsonic VX2025wm. Which is about when I joined this forum. :D Fantastic monitor. Were it not for the size/resolution, I would put it above my Dell U2410. It has a *truer* looking sRGB setting and far less noticeable anti-glare.

Samsung 940BW (1440x900)
still using it, bought two more (used) for a triple setup with a TH2Go. Hell, the 2 screens costed less than the also used TH2Go, which I now sold for almost 50% profit :lol:
Because they are old and cheap the decision to cut down the bezels was easy :)
now its a fake seamless group, looks seamless when its off :roll: but is pretty thin bezel when its on

Mine was some 20" Samsung (2053BW I think ?)



Sold it to my cousin as part of a nice lil second-hand gaming PC... and bought 3x 5:4 panels and a TH2G. :mrgreen: Because less is more when there's more of the less, or something.

Edit: oh crap, my next post will be the 2000th, how did that happen ? :shock:
