The Samsung 226BW I ordered arrived today. Decided to take the opportunity to rearrange the computer setup and move things around a bit. I really need some kind of cable management system.
1600×1050 pixels of LCD goodness. This thing is super bright too. Had to crank the brightness all the way down so that it was tolerable. It’s on a swivel stand, but not height adjustable and for some reason it only tilts toward the back. 90° is as far forward as the monitor tilts, so you don’t want to position it too high.
Would like to try and get a dual-head setup going with the new monitor and the old CRT. Might look strange, but it’s one of the Dell Trinitron 17″ monitors and even after 7 years the image quality is still pretty good.
I love this monitor. I want another one now.

Hey, I really like my Samsung 226BW after moving up from a 17″ monitor.
I ran a view of it on my blog a few weeks ago – with my cat’s picture on the screen – but you are a “dog person” and probably didn’t notice it.
Enjoy all the new elbow room.
