WHOA. I mean, WHOA. This thing is awesome. I will never enjoy non-widescreen gaming again, I think. lol.
To elaborate, I was actually pretty miffed when I initially hooked it up. The color looked like absolute crap. Once I figured out how to open the menus and get where I wanted to be, I changed the color from the default sRGB settings to my own custom ones ... and that's when I said "Whoa!" It's absolutely gorgeous.
Not a single dead pixel, and I searched and searched for backlight bleeding, and finally thought perhaps there was a little in the upper-left hand corner. Samantha stared at it for about 2 minutes before she said, "Hmm ... MAYBE ..."
Considering that I took both her L90D+'s out of the box, set them up in a bright room, and saw backlight bleeding clearly as soon as I hooked it up, I think part of my brain is just so paranoid that it may be playing a trick on me. And if I have to search THAT hard for backlight bleeding, then it's probably not even there at all, and is definitely not something I could get better than in all likelihood.
I'll take some shots of it with a black screen tonight and look a little more. But games look awesome, movies look awesome, and having a big freakin' screen that sits further away from me and looks so good is awesome.
So in short, I love my new 2405FPW ... and Sam now has LCD monitor envy. :D
