Speaking of LCDs and Costco, the Samsung 2443BWX 24″ widescreen is on sale for $349.99, and it’s a beaut’ of a computer monitor. 3 years ago I spent $800+ on a 21″ Samsung LCD that looks like crap compared to the 2443BWX. So 3 years later, for half the price you get 3″ extra screen real estate, 5x better contrast ratio, 2x better response time, and 3x power savings. I personally thank Obama because his election obviously correlates to the increase in LCD quality… this is change we can believe in!
