    Holy crap, I just went and googled them. They look awesome. I don't think I'd like the whole horizontal/vertical switching thing, but it seems like a cool feature from the pictures I've seen.

    I agree with this.
    The U2212HM monitors are a bit rounded and feel "soft", while the U2711 is a lot more robust and "industrial". Either case, I'm pleased with the increased work area.

    As for the stands, I wholeheartedly agree. They went from solid steel, incredibly robust stands that won't move even a millimeter to somewhat average, flimsier solutions. I do like that I can flip the monitors sideways though.

    So, I have this idea I've been mulling over, not something I'll likely do, but I was wondering...

    What if they (someone) made an IRON case? O.o

    Yup, we could coat it in aluminium.

    Like aluminium cases.

    Made entirely out of aluminium.

    Why not a wood case while we're at it?

    Full copper case would be intriguing, especially after a few years worth of tarnish.

    So this new patch is fun.
    But hey, at least they gave me a pointer during this screen, never happened before!

    (EDIT: Oh, and the monitor is dirty because I was cleaning everything else, and that was last, and accumulated every dust particle from all parts of the room, apparantly. :P *degauss*)
