Well, I woke up this morning at 4 to put on some warm clothes and head out to my local Staples for some Consumer Christmas Cheer. lol

I was after a 20 inch Samsung SyncMaster 205BW that was on sale for 179 bucks after rebate!! This thing retails on newegg right now for darn near 300!! Anyways, I got it and also a 400gb WD external HD that I plan to sell on ebay to help off set my cost of the monitor. Here are some pics of my baby!

What did you guys get if anything?! After 6:20 I went back home and didn't leave the house the rest of the day!! Two hours was plenty for me!!!

what the??? a widescreen for how much???

[chriso_86]

Yeah, that is what I thought when I saw the ad!! I had to go to samsung's site to look at the specs. And to my suprise they were pretty good!!! 6ms response time, HDCP and everything!!!! Really good bang for the buck!!!

i went to staples at 4 pm to browse + didnt know about their sale until then 1 gig flash drive 7 dollars

[chriso_86]

Yeah, I saw those in the add. But they were at the back of the store. And when I was heading for the line it was fairly short. By the time I would of gotten back there and back up front the line was at the back of the store. Not worth waiting 30 min to check out for.

[chriso_86]

Thanks verosa!! I am very very happy with it!! My max res. is 1680x1050. Not to great, but not bad either!! It has a 6ms response time which in LCD's is more important to me if you are gaming on it!! Gotta hate ghosting!! I have never seen it ont his baby though!

I forgot, I also got Battlefield 2142 for 25 bucks!!!!! Half off, oh yeah!!
