Late reply but...

you do realize that the max res on that screen is 1366 x 768 and it hardly helps at all with design...

Everything just looks bigger and will without a doubt look worse for design.

Trust me on this as I own a 32" LCD, 22" , 20" and a 19"

Nothing compares to the 22" for design.

Yes, I understand full well. That's why I said somewhere it's a good upgrade if you're into entertainment. Mainly movies and games etc. It's big enough for me to design a webpage on that I don't scroll and most of my graphic work as well. Of course I would rather go for the philips or BenQ for R13k for a extreme resolution but beggars can't be choosers. For a cheaper price yes I would go for a 22" or 26" instead of this one but it's a long story of how I got it. It was just meant as a standard TV screen.
P.S. Yes, it looks worse for design (pixelated or crappy antialising effect) but in a way it helps because now I notice "glitches" and after I get it perfect on this screen it end up looking amazing on a standard display.

This is by the Telkom store that's going up in Gateway:

They're going to "unreveal" their latest concept? So, what are they going to do - open the store and then cover everything with black curtains? :lol:

You have to ask yourself how nobody in the design or printing process picked that up :?. Really, Telkom has the least intelligent staff I've ever come across.

It reminds me of my trip to the Somerset West branch a few weeks ago to pick up an ADSL modem. The conversation went something like this:

Shop assistant: "Oh, that's an unusual surname! Is it German?"
Me: "No, it's Irish actually."
<Shop assistant looks confused for about 6 seconds>
Shop assistant: "Are you sure it's not German?"
Me: "I'm pretty sure it's Irish."
Shop assistant: "Isn't Ireland in Germany?"
