Nope but I've got a 22" LG and I love it.  I'd buy LG again.

Well, that's good to hear 'cause I already bought it.  :)  It will be delivered later this afternoon.  My son is going to be so psyched...he's getting my old Dell XPS gaming machine and my now old 24" Dell Monitor to go with it.  Currently the Dell machine is getting new hard drives and a wireless network card put in and then he can FINALLY stop playing around on my computer.

Once the wireless router is installed my wife can simply use the laptop she has to get on the 'net and also stay away from my machine.

My wife was Mrs. "I didn't click on any links at all"...but when I found all the malware she put on it she became Mrs. "I didn't click on any links at all...except a couple"

My 27" just blew up. LOL, don't be upset. It wasn't your manufacturer. Power supply or something went bad. $200 to repair so I went with New 22 inch.... I miss my 27".  :cry :cry :cry :cry

I won't no, but my son will.  Wireless to the home router only...we have a DSL connection.

Setup a network, rename your comp, "virus", activate messenger service on all computers, type this into command prompt:

net send 'computer name (intended recipient)' Press OK to continue formatting C:\ drive.
(Example: net send joseph Press OK to continue formatting C:\ drive. )

The end result is a pop-up window on the target computer which reads:

Message from, "virus" to, "joseph."
 Press OK to continue formatting C:\ drive.

Harmless prank, hilarious when you see the recipient freak. :P
