My favorite anime on a 22" monitor

Gurren Lagann is my current favorite anime (ZOMG NIA AND SIMON ARE SO FREAKING CUTE!!!!!). It looked good on my 15" monitor, but ever since the end of last week when I bought the Samsung SyncMaster 226BW... it looks REALLY good.

Gurren Lagann ep 11 playing on my 22" monitor


The monitor was real good. There were no dead pixels and no noticable bleeding for the most part. I tried playing PS2 games on it and it worked pretty well. The monitor can be really bright, but I generally turn the brightness down so it's easier on my eyes when I stare at the monitor for a long period of time. The base is a bit big, though so part of it has to stick out of the little shelf I put it on.

It's funny, even though I have been using a tiny 15" monitor for the last few years (4-5 years?) going to a 22" doesn't feel weird to me at all. It actually feels natural. I don't even find it looking all that big, actually...

How did I survived this long without this?!

You splurged on a monitor? I am actually cutting down on spending consumer goods that depreciate over time, you see. Learned this from your father.

Well I learned all about buying computer related goods from my father too. ^_^; He is the man who buys a computer a year.

Cool! I have the exact same monitor that I watch anime on. Looks like we bought ours at almost the same time, too.
