yes like I said...somebody is selling the U2311H locally Omar... I like it a lot hehee except I dunno how to tell the GF haha

I can't buy the monitor there Omar, freight cost alone is quite expensive...I think for a monitor it would be more than $100 :(

OUCH. Sorry man. I think its an easy explanation. I would say its needed. If you have an external now sell it to off set the price of the Dell. I would say this is a one time expense. I wont be doing it again and whats good in having a great desktop if i cant see the colors correctly? Like having a car with a great engine but having crappy tires? The car is only as good as the tires its on.

I probably will buy it but not now, maybe in 6 months time or so... :D let me recover from the cost of the PC first :lol:

an oh... I don't think I'll get my money's worth if I sell this monitor, but as well pair this with the IPS :D hahaha

my poor dad got a dell a few weeks ago and was confused why it didn't come with a dial up modem, and I was confused why it didn't come with a wireless modem. He has a 3 year old macbook pro I gave him but he can't figure out how to use it. *facepalm*

Very true. Then you can run a dual setup. What size is the one you have now?
