is it possible to get the Gateway FPD2485W 24" lcd in Malaysia? its as cheap as dell's 2407 and has no issues with the component input not to forget 1:1 mapping.

between 720p and 1080p.. u wil hardly notice any difference if ur display is no larger than 24"..

latest news on the dell fpw2407..
the latest revision a04 is available in malaysia BUT so is the a03..
simply put its a toss of a coin as to whether u get an a03 or a04..
to make tings worse, u cant specifically ask for an a04.. too bad

from my understanding, the pixel aspect ratio of a tv source is much wider than a monitor's.

i noticed this when i converted a canvas (in photoshop) from a standard monitor pixel ratio to a hdtv ratio, where the canvas became much wider.

thus i believe this is the problem faced when u set ur monitor to 1:1 display where it fits the screen with a 1080 hdtv source according to the standard pixel aspect ratio of a monitor.

just purchased the benq fp241w..
wat do i think of it?
flawless.. much better than wat i anticipated..
i must admit i wasnt 2 happy 2 cash out rm2899 for it bt nw tat is the least of my concern..
tis is definately one of my most valueable purchases

yeah ur probably rite bt im using it more for work then leisure.. so an lcd tv is out of the question..

about PQ.. no disgrunts or complains of any kind wat so ever..
for the first time in my life.. i actually enjoy staring at my wallpaper (scenic ones) thanks to the amazing depth in color tat tis lcd has.. of course u would hav to use high quality native resolution(1920*1200) wallpapers to truly take advantage of tis

bt seriously, i honestly dint expect such quality.. i tot it would b a gud, large lcd as i had initally set my eyes on the dell 2407fpw but due to its poor component quality i chose the benq..

if any of u r planning 2 buy tis.. i'd say its a gud buy.. u'll definately love it
