Desktops: HD Gateway Monitor v HP Regular Monitor
HD Gateway Monitor v HP Regular Monitor
by bizzton3k - 10/21/07 8:05 PMCan anyone tell me how much importance I should put on an HD Gateway monitor/computer package, versus a similar comparable Hewlett Packard computer package with a regular lcd monitor. I would prefer to buy the HP computer package, but for the price, I'm wondering if it would be better to stare at Gateway's HD monitor?
The computer deals are about the same, at bestbuy, so I was probably just going to get the better deal. So since the deals are also about the same, should I just go with the High Definition Gateway Monitor even though I prefer hp?
Examples of possible Monitors:

HD LCD monitor

by optical10 - 11/20/07 4:12 PM In reply to: HD Gateway Monitor v HP Regular Monitor by bizzton3kI too was about to buy the 30 inch HP monitor (After Reading the TrustedReviews.com) and I happened upon a review of the Gateway HD (At Gizmodo or was it Engadget.com) like yourself. Did you go for the HP or the Gateway?
You guys are so lucky in the USA the Gateway product isn't even confirmed as coming to the UK! I'm currently looking for someone who would be willing to purchase in the USA underage International shipping to the UK, so if you know anybody please let me know? Just got to confirm that Gateway if my warranty would be affected, even though they don't have a base in the UK they do have only two retail partners in the form of Toys "R" Us and Tesco of all places!
Anyway just wondering how you are getting along your 30 inch baby? Any thoughts that appreciated as I'm going from a 24 inch Dell 2405W so the upscaler tech in the Gateway seemed too good to pass over the HP get such good reviews as well? it's such a shame that Best Buy do not ship internationally! They even seem to have stuck in Gateway showed shipping date of the 12th of December is that information incorrect?
Any thoughts appreciated,Optical10

I'm waiting until the holiday season to pick up a good deal. I'm still in the hunt for either a decent hp or gateway, but haven't settled on either one yet. Sorry, I couldn't be of more help.
