Brag: So I just bought this ballin 30 inch screen open box off of newegg for about 1k. It's a thing of beauty and inspires awe. I wish that they would put a baby in the picture for scale or something.
Beat: my desktop is a $350 dell inspiron that doesn't have the right connection (I believe it's called a DVI port). Even with an adapter, my graphics card, which I believe is about as technologically advanced as the colorful thing inside a kaleidescope wouldn't support a screen that big anyway.
Variance: Now I need to buy another fucking computer. I think that I should buy a laptop and just connect it to the screen and forego the desktop altogether so I can travel with the same machine I use to grind from my home spot. But I've been out the tech game for awhile, and I didn't know much about it to begin with as Wake Forest generously provided us with Lenovo powered Thinkpads that have just a bit more computing power than an abacus. What would people recommend? I think my price range is gonna be $1200-1800 give or take a bit maybe. Thoughts are appreciated!
