Cat leap vs unbranded HP refurb

I bought a catleap from ebay and love it. If you're the OCD, worries about every little detail type, it may not be for you, but if your willing to overlook a few possible small flaws, and want a 2560x1440 display for between 300 and 400, this is the ticket.

Anyone else get a Catleap?

Not that I don't trust his opinion(after all, I don't even know him), but I put more weight on the many, many happy people who have actually bought and own these monitors. I just bought a catleap on ebay and am looking forward to getting it. This was one of the harder decisions I have made about...

help picking my case

Maybe it's because I just bought one but how about the Silverstone Fortress FT02? Keeps my stuff cool while looking good. It's a little on the spendy side, but you get what you pay for. -S

I share an office at work and both of us have 2 u2410's(4 total). They run hot. We have 4 other dell monitors (2 2007fp's and 2 2208wfp's) in the same office and none of them run anywhere near as hot. -S
