i dont care about the size or the lack of 1080p, hdmi, or component. i like vga better than component anyway. i just think that it will be a great tv, good response time, good contrast rate, good enought brightness, and i like it that the resoulution is just a bit higher than 720p, good for me. what do you guys think? and again i dont care about the size its just for my room!:)

i dont think its going to be HD when you play on it cause i had to buy this one monitor that was specifically made for HD gaming and it was $40 then that. Its going to be HD when you use it on a pc but not for xbox 360

again i will tell you that i dont care about any other inputs besides vga, and i only care for 720p right now since it is the sweet spot this nex gen. and also name a lcd monitor 22' that is less expensive than that and is better quality, since you say that it is to expensive.

I have this monitor. It's a beast, definitely a great buy. I'd recommend buying it at NewEgg.com though: Product Link (opens in new window). The one I linked to is slightly updated with a higher contrast ratio and a better stand. Although for $300 shipped you can have this 26" HDTV. Or for $344 you can have this 30" HDTV w/HDMI in. I hope this helps.

Thanks tgschmidt :)

But just to prove a point and I spent little to no time hunting for a "deal" - you can get this  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16824009102

It's an version of the Acer you were looking at, however, it has a fractionally better contrast ratio 800:1 versus 700:1 for $289.99 and free shipping...I just saved you $40.00.

Next time don't ask and argue, if you would like clarification say so tactfully.

Both of those TVs are 1080i. The human eye is very literally not capable of distinguishing the difference between 1080i and 1080p unless the picture is above 52". I have a 32" Samsung HD CRT (like the ones in the link) that displays in 1080i. Trust me dude, it looks as good as anything you'll see in 720p, if not better. HDMI has advantages other than accepting 1080p.

2 posts too slow you unoriginal bastard! :) [That's a joke in case anyone was wondering. I say this because the ridiculous mods often miss sarcasm.]
