Samsung 23"

I just bought one of these yesterday. I went to the local Circuit City to pick one up because of what i read here about the LN-R238W vs. the R238WA. Well, the box said it was not the "a" version so i took it home, only to find out it was the "a". I decided to hook it up anyway to my Apple G5 just to see what it looked like. the manual does say on page 81 that the max res is 1280x760 or something right around there, BUT IT DOES DO 1366x768. I think it may be a printing mistake. I used the resX utility for OS X that lets you enter your own custom resolutions, and 1366x768 @ 60hz does work flawlessly. This screen is the shiznite!


Awesome TV but has an annoying quirk

First off - this is an absolutely awesome TV. I wont go into all the great details - just buy it and you'll see!

The only knock I have is the Timer ON feature. We have DirecTV with DVR in our bedroom and our old TV had an alarm feature that allowed us to wake up to the morning news which we can't seem to live without. I assumed that the Timer ON feature of this LCD would work the same way. Unfortunately, you can only pick a channel (from antenna) and not another input source. So, we wake up to snow and have to fumble with the remote and click the source button to DirecTV. Also, I can't seem to turn this alarm off - I set the ACTIVATION setting to OFF but the TV still turns on every morning. Anyone have any suggestions?

I know I can just fork out some cash for a decent antenna to solve my problem but that just goes against all the reasons why I got satellite TV in the first place. Its annoying but the positive benefits of the TV far out weigh my morning grumpiness at having to find the remote...


How do I remove borders?

Does anyone know how ( or if ) I can watch this TV in full screen mode - with no borders. I have a Dish HD Satellite receiver - The 5 or 6 HD channels look great and use the full screen but when I select the other 150 channels ( not broadcasting in HD ) this 23" TV becomes a 19" TV. I selected wide mode ( does not give an option for full screen mode ) I agree with most of the other owners that this is a great monitor, especially for the money, but I haven't heard anyone complain about those 2" borders on both sides of the picture. Works great as a PC monitor and uses full screen. Any feedback would be appreciated PS If I can get rid of these borders this TV gets a 5 star rating - if not, it's a 1 star. Am I the only one with this problem?
