Look at this beast! I got this for free! This monster is 21' with Dual VGA Ports. I can't wait to get my hands on a dreamcast VGA/Video and/or a Xbox 360 VGA cable.

EDIT: I checked ebay about this monitor, most people pay about $30-50 for it.

I was fully prepared to be underwhelmed when I clicked on the link, but you've proven me drastically wrong. I'm very impressed... so are you going to hook up a Dreamcast and start playing your shoot 'em ups in TATE mode?

Also, when was The Dude on Cartoon Network? I missed that!

I don't know? I got this off /tv/. I think its from Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends. But I need to get the VGA box from racketboy's store. But it'll look freakin sweet! This baby can display 1800x1440! Win Freakin Win!

Its a long story. I was in this class and we started this non for profit cybercafe. We got all these local companies to donate computer items (i.e. monitors, computers, etc) Our teacher decided that we (The class) should meet up a couple of times in the summer to help out around the place. Today was one of these days. We picked up some more stuff and brought it back. When we got back, we sorted out the monitors. Our teacher only wanted the small monitors (i.e. 13-15'). We threw out about 27 of them and he said that we could have a pick of the "trash". No one really wanted a monitor, so I pick this baby up, along with another big one (single VGA) and a two regular size. Out of this project, I also got about 5 computers. The best of these are two 1.7 ghz Pentium 4 and two 1 ghz Pentium 3.
