The New 24 Beside the Old 17
One of the two big gifts I received from Charms this Christmas is a 24" Samsung LCD (model 245BW). I just had to share my elation after finally getting it all setup properly.
The 24" bad boy is using the DVI port and the old 17" is using the old D-Sub port of my antiquated video card. It took a few kicks and elbow drops from the top turnbuckle, but I was able to finally get them set up with DualView. This enables me to run the 17" as a separate monitor altogether that's accessible through what's sort of a continuation of the 24" monitor's right edge.
I've included a snapshot below (click to see a bigger size) and you can see that the most obvious difference aside from size is the brightness (or lack thereof) on the little guy. It's a damned awesome setup and I just can't believe how enormous this sucker is. (Thank you, my Charms! )
