Multifunction monitor advice please
Hi, ive got this post on another forum and am now popping in it here as ive just seen ocuk's prices for monitors
Ive finally decided to get rid of my 19" crt and replace it with a new flat panel which will be used for the following:
1: Hooked up to a win xp pro pc for art, graphics, word processing, surfing and possibly a few games. Having 2 a4 pages on screen at the same time would be a real bonus. My card has both dvi and vga and im not too fussed about dvi.
2: Connect to my sky box via scart or composite.
3: Be able to do the above simultaneously, ideally showing the sky signal (non hd) in a resizeable pip whilst doing pc work at the same time. Fonts, graphics and websites must be crystal clear and sharp and I will be sitting no more than 2 foot away, possibly a bit closer.
I would really appreciate some advice as it will be used daily and dont want to make a mistake. HD would be nice for the future but I dont actually need it to be honest.
Would like to order asap and try to get delivery friday.
Thanks
