    Hi everybody - I was curious if anyone has hooked up a Samsung T260HD LCD to their 7811. I've hooked it up via HDMI and DVI and have noticed that the colors are not as sharp as they are on the laptop screen. Anyone else notice this with this monitor or any other monitor? Is there something wrong with this monitor or is the 7811's screen just that good?

    I noticed the same thing when using my LG M237WD-PD (which is also a TV/monitor hybrid). I blame the monitor than the 7811, for I get similar results when hooking up my PS3.

    Are you talking about the T260HD or his? I unhooked it and now it says that it is my default monitor....any ideas how to change it?
