Poverty with a Bang!

5/16/2008

Yep, the Church of Moyism goes into poverty with a bang with a Samsung 50″ plasma 1080p TV/monitor!

But of course, there is no way I’m giving up my 37″ WestingHouse LCD either so it has now become my secondary monitor. Truly this is the most awesomest stupidest logical insane purchase thus far! I won’t say how much it cost but some Google-Fu should give folks a ballpark range of just have empty the Church of Moyism’s Bank is XD

Haven’t truly tested the new monitor yet but I’m loving what I’m seeing so far. Crazy how much detail you can see moving up 13 more inches in screen size! I will admit however, you need to be at least 2-5 feet away from the plasma to really enjoy the quality; anything else you’ll go blind and/or start to see the artifacts.

Of course, with it now being my primary monitor, I’ll be nearly blind by the end of July of ‘08. Fun times indeed!

    If I gave into buying all the many things I wanted I’d turn in to you. xD

  4. Deranged on 5/16/2008 at 7:10 pm

    Oh my god… I so want that…

    Must have been a ridiculous sum of money but it must be so worth it right?

  5. IcyStorm on 5/16/2008 at 7:13 pm

    That’s a sweet looking monitor.

  6. Rin on 5/16/2008 at 7:31 pm

    WTF!!!
    You are nuts!!!!!!! Getting a 50 inches…
    That is one big monitor!!!
    I want it but no room to put it…

  7. Os on 5/16/2008 at 7:55 pm

    That’s bigger than my cardboard box home!

    Wide wide wide screen Chihaya is totally worth it though.

    On your closing note, I’ve noticed a lot fewer animes are yelling at us to sit further away, perhaps they’ve just surrendered to our gradual blindness.

    Nice TV ! Samsung is sure quality. It must be great for anime like Gurren Lagann. *sigh* I’ve the same little TV for ten years.

    Nuts now you have me beat by 4 inches TV-wise…damn you and you’re unbreakable check book! ;)

    Who ever you have as a broker, you better start giving us his card too.

    You’re crazy! But it’s an awesome purchase!

  12. Sabas on 5/16/2008 at 10:51 pm

    Sweet. I wish I had that much cash to burn.

  13. Kurogane on 5/16/2008 at 11:29 pm

    OMFG. OMFG. OMFG.

    Momotato!

  14. pp on 5/16/2008 at 11:31 pm

    oh man , i feel the pinch. But having a 37″ as a secondary monitor is really overkill xD

  15. Link on 5/16/2008 at 11:35 pm

    You’re crazy. I doubt you really need two HDTV, so I have no idea why you’re keeping both… :v

    Momotato~

  16. Stripey on 5/17/2008 at 9:32 am

    !!!! At least it makes it easier to see Mikuru’s star-shaped mole! XD

    Hope you don’t go blind! LOL!

  17. Adun on 5/17/2008 at 10:45 am

    WTF!! Though I can imagine how far back you would have to be from the screen. One of our clients at work supplied us with a 35″ screen for testing their application and even then we have to be pretty far back else we’d be blind. Though for 50″, I think 2-5 feet is still a little too close.

    SWT….You can really used it up>>

  19. bj0rN on 5/17/2008 at 3:33 pm

    I saw that coming. =/

  20. moyism on 5/17/2008 at 11:02 pm

    Kabitzin, yep what I thought when I actually saw the plasma!

    Lint, you’ve known me long enough I have these stupid bouts of insanity… just that I keep upping it everytime it happens =/

    Flamehaze, yea definitely a bad thing.

    Deranged, tis pretty cool but getting used to the plasma and whatnot.

    IcyStorm, yep it is!

    Rin, pretty much the ongoing comment of the day ^^;;

    Os, LMAO

    Colin, I guess so but not like I was ever listening to those warnings anyways ;)

    kyouray, I wish but it actually looks grainy. Need better quality video and/or DVD!

    Crusader, LOL and no broker just horrible financial senses that’ll bite me in the arse one day.

    double, I got to make a name for myself somehow right?

    Sabas, same here XD

    Kurogane, MOMOTATO!!!

    pp, so I’ve told by a few people…

    Link, ’cause I’m greedy like that?

    Stripey, very true. I got to remember to check for that. And yea, I’m gonna be blind by the end of this summer I swear.

    Adun, psst sit back?! I’m currently 1ft away from it slowly destroying my vision one minute at a time!

    Kesenaitsumi, heh it’s big if anything else.

    bj0rN, I’m getting too predictable aren’t I?

  21. Zeroblade on 5/18/2008 at 11:32 am

    WHAT THE FUCK 2,700 DOLLARS YOU ARE INSANE.

    I mean, more insane than usual.

  22. manga on 5/18/2008 at 4:49 pm

    oh my god.

    I have to ask, which is better? LCD or Plasma?

    I just hope you´ll say we encouraged you to do this :p

    don´t want you to be thrown into ruin so fasr and hard as you seem to have been now.

    but nontheless, wow. I want one too!! But a little smaller I think 37″ is big enough for me. And then to make use of the PS3 and more stuff :)

    ah the dreams. Nice soft dreams.

  23. lanie-emon on 5/19/2008 at 6:13 pm

    HOLY SHI-THAT IS JUST AWESOME. AND INSANE TO BOOT.

  24. yinmaster on 5/20/2008 at 11:20 am

    Holy Christ of Church of Moyism!! That screen is DIVINELY HUGE! And you complain you’re in poverty…I think I get it now.

    Now I feel my 24in. Samsung HM2493 utterly inadequate… (squat in the corner drawing circles)

  25. Jetsk1 on 5/20/2008 at 12:24 pm

    Nice, I use the ln-t4053h 40inch LED samsung for my tv/monitor/ps3 in my little room. My tv recommends 6-8feet distance for best viewing, 2-5 is overkill on the eyes haha. I prefer the LED for viewing because of it’s brightness.

  26. Seiken / VMan of Mana on 5/22/2008 at 1:43 am

    I see the Uzu-Maki cover in the big monitor. Is that your media player? Something related to the desktop wallpaper?

    KOTOKO fan here – couldn’t resist =)

  27. Nosgoroth on 8/5/2008 at 10:48 am

    It’s August. Are you blind yet?
