It doesn't suck, per se, but it certainly wasn't what it used to be. --- End quote --- Their desktops aren't as good as they used to be, they do make a good laptop and monitors though. |

On the subject of monitors, whats the difference between brown townog RGB and DVI? I prefer DVI right now seeing as these stupid DVI-to-RGB convertors have really hard screws (My 9800GT has only two DVI outputs and an S-Video output), but any sort of difference? |

Just not my picking. --- Quote from: Gen. Nick on June 23, 2009, 12:07:55 AM ---On the subject of monitors, whats the difference between brown townog RGB and DVI?
