Winters is currently not taking any orders in the time being. Maybe u can try here. Also the 2407 series have some serious issues with its component inputs, the image would be extremely dark in dark areas. The only remedy would be to use the VGA input instead.

LG doesn't make any 24" LCD panels, they have 23" instead. That's why the 24" Dell is using Samsung panel.

haven't released here yet, and estimated to cost upwards of RM2.8k.

might as well add some more and get a 32" LCDTV

Only thing lacking on this lcd is the DVI input, why not consider Samsung, BenQ or Viewsonic. Most are around RM800 or though.

That would be SOYO. You can get it from Jln Pasar for about..... *drum rolls*.... RM2299!! But no HDMI of coz.... only VGA, DVI and component.

Sure got warranty. Not sure bout Akira but at least Soyo was once a reputable motherboard brand for the PC last time.

Don't fret, let me point u to this direction then. RM795 only.

Samsung 940BW

Did u connect your xbox360 using VGA or component cables? U need to use vga cable for 1080p to work on Dell 2407FPW.

yup, 1080p = 1920x1080. Dell 2407WFP can only accept 1080p thru VGA, and up to 1080i on component since the built-in scaler doesn't support 1080p thru component.

As, for the BenQ lcd, we're most likely gonna get the updated version, model FP241WZ. Almost similar specs but added a new feature to minimize ghosting. Some may say 1080p is useless on a 24" LCD, but in this case since it's an lcd monitor, when you're sitting so near, the difference would still be visible.

Samsung R7 and most LCDTVs accepts 1080i but scaled to their native panel res, 1366x768 (slightly higher than 720p).

Belkin KVM switch with ps/2 port is about, RM129, while KVM with USB ports is RM229.

There's an option to scale 1:1 instead of Fill fullscreen, so it wont stretch the image.

i tot it still does but labelled as 4:3 instead. Will check back later... since my 2007WFP had the option to scale while maintaining the aspect ratio.

U can scale the image without stretching to 16:10 if u select the image scaling as 4:3 in the menu.

That's what i meant la. If u dun want it to stretch, but scale while maintaining the aspect ratio, select 4:3 in the image scaling options. Selecting 1:1 u'll get an image in the middle of the panel with border all around.

HDMI supports 1080p but your LCDTV isn't, so your only choice is 720p. All 26" lcdtv currently are using 1366x768 panels, so obviously u won't get 1080p.

Dell 2007WFP is marketed as 16ms but that is with a Black to White rating, while most lcds rate their response time in grey-to-grey. The equivalent grey-to-grey for Dell 2007WFP is 6ms. Trust me, there's no such ghosting at all, even a camera with 1/1000 shutter speed can barely see any ghosting on the panel. If u can see any ghosting then i guess u have some super eyes.

bcoz with Dell there's a scaler so u can maintain the 16:9 aspect ratio but the rest will stretch it to 16:10. Also, for Dell 2407WFP, VGA looks better than component, but that's simply bcoz the 2407 series had issues with the component input. But then again, if one had a 2407, it's better to use VGA and 1080p output option anyways.

yes... just to maintain the 16:9 aspect ratio. I'm using Dell 2007WFP remember? Also, yes there is a difference when u choose the 1080p option even on a 24" lcd. Why? Well since lcd works best at native res, choosing 1080p will give u the sharpest image over 720p which give a slightly blurry output, most obvious are the text. Yeah, for movies maybe one can't see much of a difference, but with games which involves a lot of text dialogs and HUDs, it's quote obvious really. If one can't see any difference of 1080p on a 24", then why would any PC users opt to use 1920x1200 as desktop res instead of let's say..... 1280x720? The difference is there, u just had to experience it yourself.

yeah.... sitting close to a 24" lcd monitor is more or less the equivalent to sitting on a couch watching a 50" tv. Text aren't exactly that small, more readable than running 1280x1024 on 17" LCD.

that would hardly be possible unless the dvi input is DVI-I. Most likely it's DVI-D, which is digital only, no analog input.

yea man.... text are much sharper compared to 1360x768 reso option.

Rite now i'm considering to sell my Dell 2007WFP to get the Dell 2407WFP instead. Hmmmm....
