Re: Monitors

[John Jones <chianime@xxxxxxxxx>]

4K screens will provide crisper text and/or more data available
at-a-glance. I have
https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/monitors/uhd-and-wqhd/samsung-uhd-28-monitor-with-high-glossy-black-finish-lu28e590ds-za/
and
it's great.

BTW I have a 50" Toshiba Fire TV in my exercise room (got it on Black
Friday). Works well but it is oriented around streaming v. OTA broadcasts.
When powered on it defaults to a home screen and not the last channel that
was watched. It has Alexa built in so I can press a button on the
(minimalist) remote and say "Alexa, watch Good Omens". Supports smart TV
apps for Netflix, Hulu, etc. as well; you're not locked in to Amazon's
ecosystem. Using a wall mount from Monoprice.com.
