You can already get a 23" monitor with that budget. If you look hard enough, maybe 24" is possible. Check out garage sales more often and from time to time. smile.gif

Last time during February DELL 24" used to be only priced at RM580 per unit.

Got T240 about 3 weeks back, frugging love it
superb colors, nice 16:10-ness and everything, so clear so everythingness!!
the monitor itself looks great too!
only thing i dont like about this monitor is the power on button is feather-touch, it looks cool and all but when the lights are off its impossible to know where to press, only can simply move around that area and hope it goes on lol..
and also the side buttons are no good, i mean its all on the side, how am i suppose to know what button does what when i cant read it, i wish they made the settings button feather-touch on the front while powerbutton has a huge ass clickable button.. lol
but once its set up nicely i never had to use the buttons anymore so i have absolutely no problem with this monitor <3

the only thing i have now is i connected the HDMI cable to my monitor, and two other screens connected via DVI.. but when my com starts up the BIOS screen shows on one of the other screens not my T240, only when reach windows it shows. is this the graphic card or the monitor? anyone know how to solve it? Using 295GTX btw
*
Wanna ask you if the screen is prone is vibration as the previous samsung builds I tested is prone to it. Especially when I'm playing beat music games. The screen starts shaking

I wanna ask
If I bought the Acer H233H, can I connect the PS3 HDMI cable to the LCD monitor?
Then how about the sound output?
Connect using AV Multi out?
Can the monitor display the screen properly @ 1080p?
*
Yes you are able to connect to the LCD via HDMI. As for the sound output. You can use the port from the monitor to your speakers / soundcard.

Or you can use Digital Fiber optic audio cable from PS3 to speaker. Assuming that your speakers accept such input. You'll have to set the audio output at the PS3 settings for this.

I was referring to the LCD monitor. Actually I don't want to use the built in speaker of the LCD monitor. I want to use my external speaker. Is it possible to connect the PS3 to external speaker while using the HDMI for the display? FYI I still don't have PS3  tongue.gif According to your pic (is that the PS3 pic?) maybe I can use the Left Right (Red White) connector.

That pic is actually the back of a T240HD

check out using bank deposit, it will work, just bank in manually as per instructions or bank cheque

Cheque/Bank Draft <--- Is this the option ?

I chose Telegraphic Transfer. I assume that I'm able to use m2u's service to pay the bank right?

Atm the transfer keeps being denied. Maybe due to the time. Shall wait till morning and try again


Added on June 13, 2009, 5:09 amUpdate : As of 5am the transaction was accepted. Received an SMS from Maybank saying the Funds was accepted.

GIRO transfer from Maybank to Citibank seems to work. Fingers crossed.

anyone here on Acer P243W? would like to get one coz from reviews it looks ok. choosin this ahead of dell S2409W due to diff in resolution (1920*1200 vs 1920*1080). any comment/suggestion?  unsure.gif

1920 * 1200 = 16:10

1920 * 1080 = 16:9

I noticed something weird, I couldn't find the product manual for SP2208WFP, it's either showing a 20" model or you'll get a 404.
