Well everything is sorted out besides a few tweaks.

Board drivers , new video card, reformat, game installation. So what do I think of the Samsung?

No dead pixels. That was good, not a single one.

Performance is very good. Not as smooth as a good CRT but not bad enough to go back to them.

The touch menus are brutal. Hate them. Even after a few days of using them, they're a pain. Either they don't react correctly, or they muffed the timing before one takes over for another.

Very very "touchy". No pun intended.

Auto-detect was flaky now and then. Wouldn't see the DVI connection a few times. So I switched to manual.

Software is OK. MagicRotate is cool but I'll never use it, it's getting uninstalled this weekend. NaturalColor Pro is a nice way to tune the colors, but the Nvidia one is just as good. So that will get ditched soon.

Just shite running the background I don't need.

It looks fabulous. Samsung black piano finish. Small profile, no chrome. Very minimal just how I like things. Stealthy.

So:

Performance: Very Good
Software: Good but useless for me
Looks: Excellent
OSD (on screen display): Terrible maneuvering, auto-detect flaky.
