I recently bought a swish new monitor. 19" widescreen. Makes for a nice change from the old 15" CRT.

But, there are bigger monitors out there. Unfortunately the website photos don't give a feeling of size! They're just the monitor on a white background with some slick desktop wallpaper. If anyone here is crazy enough to have bought a 30" monitor, can you please post a photo? With something next to it for comparison, like a can of drink or a cd case. Just so I can bask in its awesomeness.

Many thanks

    Holy fuck.. If all that is yours, I have a question.. where did you get that desk(s)? I've been looking for a nice metal/glass desk, and that looks awesome.

    Stale, is that camera on the left an XL2?

    It looks like what I seem to recall them looking like, but I've always been more of a DVX man, so I'm not sure.

    I would've asked for the day off, but where I work is so confused and contradictory about whether or not I get days off my first year working there, that I didn't schedule it off, and when I found out that I could have, it was way too late.

    What. the. fuck.

    This whole thing is fucking hilarious. I mean, I don't a scientific basis for believing that HIV causes AIDS, but I do believe 99.99% of the medical community when they agree on something.

    The good side to all of this is it was the Foo Fighters' bassist that organized that benefit and Dave probably just went along with it.

    The Foo Fighters' bassist has AIDS.

    Oh God I read through some of the Wikipedia stuff on AIDS denial and it's just full of "Professor whatever maintained that AIDS was not caused by HIV. He later died of AIDS". And the woman who created that charity had got re-tested for HIV and it came back inconclusive, and she decided that meant that she didn't have AIDS after all, so she got pregnant and refused to take medication. And then surprise-surprise the baby died and the coroner did an examination and found AIDS symptoms everywhere and HIV molecules in her brain, but the woman got some quack to say she died of an allergy. And now she helps HIV+ women to not get their kids tested / treated for AIDS. I was just slapping my head throughout reading it, thinking how fucking retarded is this bitch. Oh and she thought AIDS death was caused by stress and bad diet or some bullshit.

    The most ridiculous thing was an AIDS denial magazine which had to shut down publication because all its editors had died from AIDS.
