Oh god.

:eek:

Its happened.

:eek:


Please no.

:eek:

I've been telling myself that i would buy a big monitor when the price drops, ether a Dell or an Apple.

This way i can resist spending lots of £££ as i am saving to pay the bills that go with moving house, when mine sells.

But now the price has dropped.

£670 for the 24" model.

My resistence is crumbling.

Its not long now.

That is absolutely incredible value :eek: :cool: Already got a 2005FPW though, and I can't see the RevA iMacs FX5200 (w/ hack) powering the on board 20" screen + one of these bad boys :(
 
Suppose i could ask her if we could try for a baby, that should take her mind off it.

Actually, babys are quict pricey arn't they?

Thats the best thing about babies, the trying bit ;)
 
Is this an offer or permanent?

I really want (see want, not need) a 2005FPW, but the timing is all wrong - I want a new guitar next month and its about the same price!

I appears to be part of the Dell LCD sale that ends 24/8 I believe.

I've just put an order in for mine! :-s

Now i need to move my desk over as the Dell is so big it won't fit on properly.

Also will need to set up my speakers on my Sony amp.

The thought of playing WOW in widescreen...drool...

EDdesighUK, did you get a DVI cable with your monitor?

Think i may have to buy one.

Whilst I'm not e I can report that I got a DVI cable with my 2005FPW (and a standard VGA cable and a USB A-B cable for the hub iirc).

Nightmare senario, enormous new monitor and no bloody cable!

Yeah but as nightmares go, that's still a pretty cool one. ;-) More of a wet dream than a nightmare if you ask me. lol

Can''t wait to get that big screen!!

Check the packing list (or whatever it's called) before you call them! Maybe they've cut back on the cables to make the lower price points...
 
Just phoned up, after being re-directed to India like evry othe bloody call centre they did confirm that it comes with DVI cables.

:)
