New Acer LCD Display

Acer Display
Today my new flatscreen monitor arrived. I got it from CDW and it was delivered overnight. I got the ACER AL1715W for $249. I remember seeing a monitor like this one for over $400 just 6 months ago. I cannot wait to use it at home.

I am really tempted to purchase a Mac Mini and use it on a KVM switch with my PC with this new monitor. But I think ultimately I will want a G4 powerbook so I have a current and portable development system.

I pretty much just use the PC for playing Halo lately, but I hope to also do a fair amount of Java development with IDEA on it now. My aging 17" monitor has a sort of blurring distoration now which makes it frustrating to write code.
