New Computer Tomorrow!

It's going to be delivered tomorrow by UPS. I'm kind of numb. How many years have I been waiting for this? Too long.

We're thinking of getting a new monitor, too. I saw some flatscreens at BJ's Wholesale Club; they have a 20.1" HP monitor for $229. Hmm, I see that Wal-Mart has a 21.6 Acer monitor for the same price.

Hmm, Best Buy has a Hannspree 22" monitor that can be rotated to a vertical position ([livejournal.com profile] charibdis has one like that; it's really cool) for $239. I wonder if Hannspree is a Chinese company?

I'm almost ready to kill for a larger montor. Don't get me wrong, I still love my 19" samsung 906BW, but I'd love a 22" or larger now that the prices are affordable.

From a lot (a whole lot) of Googling, I found that Hannspree is based in Taipei, so they're Taiwanese. I found out earlier than that that Hannspree is noted for making goofy TVs, like one that's a purse. I saw a blurb syaing that they were "creating an entirely new category of design-driven, lifestyle-inspired televisions."
