LCD larger size -- what for ??

Try one for more than a day and experience the joy of precise, light speed cursor movement with zero effort. You will wonder why you were so stupid the day before. :P Agreed. Trackballs are excellent tools for work... crap for gaming but great for work If gaming was work, would they be great then? Silly person, trackballs are great for gaming too. I guess it depends on the games. I tried the trackball when I had it because I'm starting to get probs with wrists and fingers (old age) and I had to go back to my MX518 for my FPS games. Love the trackball for everything else though Good suggestion - I totally forgot about the track ball. Damn, the last time I use a track ball was with the Unisys ICON computer system. Start getting use with the mouse since the day of the C64/128 with the GEOS software package. |

Even that has issues like in World in Conflict, Crysis, etc. with my GeForce 7950 GT KO (512 MB; PCIe). If I had a slightly bigger monitor, 1600x1200 would be my next native resolution and that's a big jump. Yea, you would do better to get 16:9 22" @1680x1050 instead of 4:3 @1600x1200. After asking folk why the hell they think they need anything bigger than a 22" WS I am now very tempted by the price and quality of this 24"... http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...odid=MO-026-OK What about the colour transmission of this minitor ? E.g. I have an LG 19" WS monitor, and it saturates white. The next screen I want to get is to have a better reproduction of colour. I am not interested in a cheap 24" screen if its quality of colour is not good. Google what ? My comment was that the 24" monitor you were tempted with probably had a not-too-good image quality, because it was cheap. My comment was that _I_ put the image quality over the size of the monitor. |

Why would he be better to get a 16:9 22" 1680x1050(WS) instead of a 1600x1200 (Assumed 22")? Because 1600x1200 is more pixels to push than 1680x1050. For gaming widescreen is better anyway because it helps alleviate tunnel vision many older 4:3 games suffer from. In racing sims, flight sims and FPS's widescreen is much better. |

Silly person, trackballs are great for gaming too. Not in shooters. I tried my trackball in those kinds of games and it was horrible. Need more precision and speed than a trackball can give. |

* Phil:
The same thing as speakers: a certain brand might sound good to some but sound bad to other - it's all in the ears. Again BS. The difference is not in the ears, it's only in the mind. Again, that's BS. Like with music it's all in the mind. Benjamin So, according you, hearing of sound and seeing of images are not based on the ears and eyes, but it's all in the mind !!! Nope. Read again and this time at least try to understand what the words mean even if it's obviously difficult for you. As you can see above, I just said that to the example of the speakers that *this* is no function of the ears because if something sounds "good" or "bad" for you is just a function of the mind and not of the ears. There are enough scientific documents around that cover the complexity of hearing impression. Based on this, everybody should have the same hearing level and same level of 'seeing' - only the mind that does all the trickery with what you hear and see. Right? Nope. Vision and hearing degrades over time, and this degradation is different for every individual. But degradation has nothing to do if some speaker sounds "good" or "bad" to you. So please explain to me why there are people with hearing aids device or corrective lenses. Why a 80 years old doesn't have the same hearing and seeing 'power' as one in his/her teen? Again this is due degradation of hearing. And again this has *nothing* to do if a speaker sounds "good" or "bad" to someone. You obviously mix the signal reception (ears/eyes) with the signal processing (brain, your "mind"). The hearing/vision *performance* is decided by the ears/eyes, but what you find "good" or "bad" is not. Someone who bought a set of speaker he finds sounding "good" won't find them "bad" when he gets older and his hearing degrades. Hearing is much more than just a function of the ears, and the human signal processing (brain) is very good in interpolation to correct flaws in the signal reception. The same is valid for the eyes. Again, I suggest you read into how seeing and hearing really works and not how you think it does. So I guess why should some spend thousand of $$$ for a pair of speakers while a $100 one would sound the same to all. Or why some would spend more on a high-end LCD while a cheapest brand would give the same image? The only real difference between a cheap LCD and a high end LCD is color reproduction. High end displays have a much better color reproduction, combined with a consistent backlight. Cheap LCDs usually come with backlights that are brighter or darker in some parts of the screen, and the color reproduction isn't as good. That means these ****ing expensive LCDs are bought for applications where color reproduction is essential (i.e. image processing). If you buy such a high end display for generic apps or games just because you hope to get a better overall image quality you're stupid like hell. BTW: most of these displays have quite high response times. Sir, your arguement is full of hole !!! Just because you're too stupid to see the difference between vision/hearing degradation and that what is usually called "taste" doesn't make my statements wrong. Of course, I understand that *you* are not able to see it as it seems that biology on Canadian schools don't cover this topic at all. In other countries this is part of basic school education.

Trackballs are excellent tools for work... crap for gaming but great for work I can't agree that trackballs are crap for gaming as I don't use mice for around 15 years now since I bought my first trackball. With a trackball I can aim faster and more precise than with a mouse. I'd never ever go back to a mouse, not for work and especially not for gaming. Of course this is my personal experience and probably not valid for everyone. As always this is a thing of personal preference. Benjamin |

Perhaps like any other new controller I should have spent more time with it? One thing i do hate is how quickly the track ball picks up crap and deposits it on the insides requiring me to take out the ball and scrape gunge out. This is a MS Optical trackball version 1.0 - which one do you have? |

Benjamin Sir, Exactly, vision/hearing degradation is the reason why each person has his/her own preference of good/bad sound/image quality. The brain can only process whatever signal send to it via the eyes or ears. Look through a dirty window and a clean window, which image is better. Cover your ears and uncover them, which is receive sound better. The brain can only process what ever signal that the eyes and ears can recieve and send to it. So seeing and hearing are based on the eyes and ears. With good eyes, you see better and vice versal. I don't care which kind of education you got but obviously, the function of the eyes and ears are not being taugh. I am to tire of arguing with stupid. |
