    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

27 inch monitor 150 bucks

The same monitor is available here in the Netherlands......... 249 Euro! which is about 275 US dollars!

So even when I would have had the 150 US dollars there was quite a bit more to wish!

But there is good news as well! For the same amount I can buy a LG 29"monitor! Now of I only had 249 Euros :banghead:

Mark,

You are still quite young, when your eyes are as old as ours you just need a large monitor and the resolutions isn't that important anymore, as we are already quite happy we can see our monitor :biggrin-new:

Huub, at 50 one isn't quite young anymore, at least physically :) My eyes are so crooked that I have 5 different glasses for all kinds of applications. But I really agree on the size and this was one of the reasons I bought one myself. I have a 27" monitor that runs at 2.5k, and work with a second one right next to it that is a Samsung 22" model at 1080p. Even though it is significantly smaller, the difference in sharpness is like day and night. I consider that buying the big 27" was one of the best investments I made in recent years.

Anyhow, at the end of the day, it is still a matter of taste and of course the amount of money one is willing to spend on it.


Cheers,
Mark
