My Latest Toys

I just got the Belkin 54G wireless router and PC card (OM deals). My wife had those $10 off $20 cards from work so I used those to get both. Setup is a breeze and now I am connecting wirelessly at 54 Mbps.

A month ago I got a dell 20.1 lcd monitor. It's so big & bright i can easily type in the dark. Everytime i look at it from across the room, i can't help but smile and say to myself "Damn that was money well spent." I think it's love man.

Isn't the most you'll ever see out of that 25 Mbps? Someone find a link of typical transfer speeds on 802.11 networks... I can't, it's 6:15 in the effin' morning!

you spent so much on a 4x3 monitor, tisk tisk. Couple months and we'll surely see a 19" widescreen for the same price (maybe we already have!) Now now, you said you love your monitor - my opinion means nothing. =)

There were several months going by when i was just ogling this monitor, waiting for the right price to drop. Everything drops in price. I had to get it eventually. All that matters if there is regret after the purchase and i have none.

i probably shouldnt be bringing this up again, but a 20" 4:3 monitor is a lot bigger than a 19" 16:9 monitor in terms of actual surface area. now, if you care about what looks cooler, then i guess a 16:9 would be better
