Guys,

Been thinking about getting either:

LG 32LB9R1 (32-inch LCD)

Diagonal screen size 32 inch
Aspect ratio 16:9
Dimensions (HxWxD) 544.1 x 805.8 x 79 mm
Weight 12.6 kg
Contrast ratio 10000:1
S-IPS LCD panel; XD Engine; Intelligent eye; Simplink (HDMI-CEC); 1080p-ready dual HDMI terminals.
1366 x 768 resolution; 500cd/m2 brightness; 5ms response time; 178-degree viewing angle; HD-ready.

or hold till march/april for the upcoming Sony Bravia 32 inch LCD


Bravia KLV-32W400A

Aspect ratio: 16:9
Dimensions (HxWxD): 794 x 540 x 99 mm
Weight: 13 kg
Contrast ratio: 30000:1
Bravia Engine 2: WCG-CCFL; 1080p24 input-ready; Digital Media Port; Bravia Sync (for Handycam camcorders); triple HDMI terminals.

Of coz, on top of that, there's still price factor to consider for the Sony unit, since I have no idea how much the W series will cost. However, on paper it would seem that the Sony unit will easily puts just about most LCD TV of the same catagory (and then some) to shame.

I'll be using the screen for gaming with my xbox 360/wii & external video output for my notebook. So my question is, if I get the LCD TV, will the video/output look crappy once i switch connect for notebook pc mode? Or would it be better to just go for those Computer LCD monitors like Dell, Viewsonic etc.

BTW do your 360 got HDMI port?

Yeah I got forcibly "upgraded" to a Elite 360 Falcon set due to rrod but it's all good since the Falcon set runs cooler wink.gif

I've been thinking hard on whether to replace my desktop with the Dell XPS M1330 notebook (comes with HDMI) and if I do that, I need to know how the output would look.
