I have a new monitor!
Jun. 16th, 2006 09:24 amI was given a used 17" monitor, and it rocks! I did not know how fuzzy my old 17" NEC Multisync was getting, but this new one is wonderously sharp. I'm quite beside myself with joy. Honestly! Perhaps the sweetest thing about it is it is so LIGHT! Speaking as someone who has shlepped a lot of monitors over the years, a light 17"er is a great thing.
I jumped on City of Heroes last night for an hour or so, ran into my old friend Dan, and with this monitor, coupled with my new video card and new sound card, I had a great time. One mission that we did had vampire-generating pools, great visual effects with the water. Another mission we were fighting zombies, then later on, a giant tiki god. Dan sat back and played sniper and healed me while I ran in like a buzz saw mowing these things down. When I was chewing up the tiki god, there was Polynesian music playing, but only when you were close to it.
Lots of fun!
