Re: Choosing a computer monitor

Have you considered installing a projector?

If you're 2-3 m away from the image, your room seems big enough.

(*) Allerdings zwingen wir auch niemanden, irgendein Buch zu lesen. Wenn du das Wort (oder auch andere) nicht auss...

Great, thank you!

Not my usual fare I admit, and I cringed hard when he essentially said "when everybody believes in Christ, things will be solved..." Sure :roll:
