Yale: #dell_ultrasharp_2709w In the market for 2 massive screens... They had this on the Canadian day of deals yesterday for $550, or about $450 off the regular price. I don't have enough saved up yet, but I'm still wondering if I made a mistake by not jumping and getting them... The specs seem like something I'd settle for. Hopefully by the time I'm ready there are better options (and another round of deals). Apr 18, 09
