Hey,
Well, I have been debating on buying so many things, but finally decided that a nice widescreen monitor will be what I need. After using a terrible 15" monitor for a second screen for the past week, I dont think I could ever go to one screen. Its to nice using 2.
I am not certain which to go for though... I am leaning a lot towards the Belina, and I have given myself one more week to read reviews before parting with the money.
Just wanted to see if anyone could give me a recommendation? the monitor MUST have 2 inputs... I need 1 for the 360 and 1 for the PC, so obviously being able to switch between the 2 is important. I will be using it for almost everything, but games on the 360 and PC, plus photoshop and Maya PLE will be used as well. I may watch the odd movie too, but thats not the most important thing, as I have a TV out to a 28" CRT.
The only things that worries me with the Belinea is the backlight bleed, and the 360.... If I use the 360 on that screen, will it automatically use every pixel and be full screen, or will it only do a 1:1 ratio and leave bars everywhere? I am looking to spend about 350 - 400 max, but the Belinea or the phiilips seem to be leading the pack at the moment.
