Well I got mine today. I'm pretty happy with it considering it was only $270. There are no dead or stuck pixels and PS3 works wonderfully on it with no ghosting. But as expected, color reproduction is not too great due to the TN panel and built-in speakers are also crappy.

I couldn't find any reviews on the monitor but I went ahead and ordered one anyways since Costco has a 90 day no questions asked return policy. I'll post here again once I get the monitor.

anybody?

Anyone have any of these? Thoughts on the monitor? http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11528777&whse=BC&Ne=4000000&eCat=BC|84|1680&N=4001499&Mo=4&No=1&Nr=P_CatalogName:BC&cat=1680&Ns=P_Price|1||P_SignDesc1&lang=en-US&Sp=C&hierPath=84*1680*&topnav=

So there's no stretching to fit 1080 into 1200 pixels? Reason I'm asking is some users have been complaining connecting their PS3 via HDMI to the HH-281HPB will stretch the image, rather than having 1:1 pixel mapping.

Can anybody confirm that the Hanns-G HH-281HPB (or the I-Inc iH-282HPB re-brand) monitor can do 1:1 proper pixel mapping? It seems there are a lot of people reporting that their xbox 360 or ps3 will scale (stretching to fit vertically from 1920x1080 to 1920x1200) when hooked up via HDMI to the...

Ok well I've heard that the new perpendicular 5400RPM notebook drives are really close in performance to the 7200RPM notebook drives. Does anybody know if Dell uses perpendicular 5400RPM drives in the E1705?

I am getting a Dell laptop soon (because the nice coupons make it a good deal) and I was wondering if it was worth getting a 100GB 7200RPM HD over a 120GB 5400RPM HD. The upgrade for the 100GB 7200RPM drive is $84 more than the 120GB 5400RPM drive. I know that in the past the 5400RPM notebook...

PSU is probably the component that is holding you back. Probably can't support a 6800GT and a S939 A64 3000+ oc'd together. Are your PSU rails fluctuating a lot?

Those old black Shuttle XPC's for P4 still look the best IMO. The new ones don't look too bad I guess :) . $400 is a bit much though :(

Anybody know what kind of onboard sound these things will be packing?

Yeah, the new ones don't look too good. The only S939 Shuttle so far looks :o http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=56-101-457&depa=0

Sweet, as long as it doesn't get stolen at CPL :(
