Downtown showdown

Hey guys. Just wondering if anyone here knows about it: What computer screen is better and most readable for a very myopic/astigmatic person, 17" or 19"? We're buying a new one, but there's a big chance my two favorite resolutions (800 and 1024) are not available in the new models. And frankly, I'm concerned I won't be able to read for fuck. I think I normally have like -3.5 to 3.0 in one eye and -4.5 to -4.0 in the other one.

I went today downtown to learn how to take the bus(es) from the town we now live in. I bought a Pterry book, Interesting Times. With this, I'm almost done with the Rincewind books (I'm missing The Last Hero).

PS: Estefanía, this is the reminder for the DVD rip stuff.

ETA:







How grammatically correct are you? (Revised with answer key)




You are a MASTER of the English language!

Huzzah. While your English is not exactly perfect, you are still more grammatically correct than just about every American. Others admire the way you speak and could learn a lot from listening to you. Still, there is always room for improvement...

WTF Mr. Miyagi!? Should I stand on one leg at a wooden stick at the beach while reciting verb forms? Also, bummer. I wanted to know the correct answers! How can I improve if you don't teach me, quizmaker?!


Which Hogwarts house will you be sorted into?



Your in-depth results are:

Ravenclaw - 13
Hufflepuff - 11
Gryffindor - 11
Slytherin - 8

...I totally didn't think I'd be getting Ravenclaw this time, considering my answers were not that smart-ish.

Soy muy miope (6.5 y 5.5, no se cual en cual ojo), mi monitor es de 17 pulgadas, tengo todo a 1152*824, y no siento nada muy chico ni tengo que acercarme demasiado. De hecho, si tuviera las cosas a 800 acá, lo sentiría demasiado gigante y con muy poco espacio. ¡Ya con 1024 me siento constreñida!
De todas maneras, la norma con la gente con problemas visuales es que el monitor siempre es mejor si más grande. Si tienes espacio en el escritorio y te alcanza el dinero, el de 19.
