damn you monitor
ok so i finally got my computer in my room. horray. thats the good news
bad news:
my monitor is freaking ginormious and takes up the whole desk. so my keyboard to be infront of my montior must be in this crappy little rolly thingie that comes out of the keyboard.
well i also like to have my legs sticking straight out as that is most comfortable. but i cant because this little keyboard thing is so low it gets int he way so i ahve to strattle my keyboard with my legs wide open.
and this damn thing is so low it feels like im typing away at a childs computer.
freaking sucks man. the best way i can think of solving this issue is to get a flatscreen LCD monitor.
so if any of you find a great deal on one please let me know, currently it sucks.

Aw nuts man. Yeah I used to have a pc in my room before I desperately needed to make space. Like you it took up more space than I thought. I'd like to get a laptop now so I could take it to uni but not sure if its worth the money.
But when you look at it from a distance does the big monitor at least look cool?

mmmm see Haine's computer is in her study room and Haine likes it there lol so it doesn't really matter since Haine's room is right beside it lol
Oh! but flat screens aren't that expensive so Haine's pretty sure you could find some good priced ones at any near by store that sells computers (^^) they only around 100 if you get the simple ones

this monitor looks badass tell me what you think?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16824116314R
but in the meantime as i scrap up cash i can do two things: take a screwdriver and remove the backboard to my computer desk behind the monitor. then move my desk a few inches foreward and have the back of the monitor hang a little bit off the back (ok not hang, but let the part thats big stick out that end)
it might work.

Oh no man that would suck for gaming. How large is your current monitor? I have a 19" CRT and LCD monitors on my desktop with plenty of space. Since you are a gamer I would recommend the Samsung Monitor:

thanks for the advice, i have to admit i dont know what would make a good gaming monitor
(looks at the page)
ok what makes that monitor better than the one i mentioned?
its bigger, both are 8ms. the Pixel pitch is higher (i have no idea what pixel pitch is BTW) and the angle of viewing is smaller (160H/160V vs the 170H/170V)
im still in the dark on monitors.
if its brand i found one thats almost the same but has a faster response time of 4ms
