Samsung SyncMaster 242MP anyone ?

[hug0]

Hi all,

I'm considering buying a Samsung SyncMaster 242MP (http://www.samsung.co.uk/cgi-bin/ecuk/product/product_detail.jsp?categoryPath=%2fSEUK+Products%2fIT+%26+Business+Related+Product%2fMonitor%2fTFT+L CD&prodID=SM242MP%2fXEU) screen + a Mac mini for "living room" type of usage (TV + DVD watching, a bit of surfing, email, ...). The screen is the only one I could find in the category with an embedded TV tuner, a good resolution (1900*1200), the needed connectivity (DVI + all the rest), all for a reasonable price. Anyone good or bad experience to share ? Or any alternative to advise ?

Thanks,
hugo

It certainly looks nice. I'd see if any store near you has one on display... A CompUSA or something. I wouldn't buy a monitor unless I've seen it in person first.
