My weekend project.- new MONITOR.

Well, I got a new monitor for my office computer, and time to install it. Easy, huh? Not so much.

Before: Dual 18" NECs. They're up there on the wall behind one o' them speakers



I've been doing a 5.1 surround mix, so there's a few more speakers than normal. What a mess, but fun.

Clearing the way:




Needless to say, lots 'o wires to undo, to be able to get to the wall.

The new Monitor, a HAANS-G 28" 1080p from newegg.com. $479!!!! Ridiculous. It has a few issues making "red" from the HDMI input, but jeezus it was $479. Works fine from the D-Sub.

It only weighs 24 lbs, so I could use a pretty small VESA mount.





I also moved the whole desk-assembly about 6" further into the room, to get the speakers a little further away from the wall. (sounds a little better that way.)
