Text is blurry at 1080? I wonder how we read the internet back in the ol vga days
blurrier* relative to 1440p or 1080p @ 22". sure, you can read text on it, but if your main use is excel, emails, etc, why use a 27" unless you just prefer a larger screen and are going to blow up the scale anyway.

and you mean back in the day when monitors were also smaller? and back when that was the mainstream technology? not sure you understood my point. why intentionally choose a worse DPI monitor when higher DPI is available mainstream (a dime a dozen at this point), especially when it may suit better for office work? i'd rather squeeze two 22" at 1080p for office work rather than a single 27" at 1080p and not have space for another.
27" 1080p PC is good for older eyes.

For office use, this seems like a killer price for the size.

for office use, 1080p on a 27" only takes up a lot of desk space without providing screen real estate (pixels), not to mention text looking blurrier as a result.
i'd say it's a killer price for gaming on a tight budget, where you get the immersion of 27" without needing a beefier gpu to push 1440p pixels. text clarity isn't as important in gaming.

I bought a Westinghouse TV from microcenter. It died in less than a month.

Don't cheap out on your monitor. FHD max decent looking size is 24" and this would be a bargain at that size.

+1 I would be driving to microcenter right now if it was 1440p.

Exactly. Older eyes and 27 / 1440 don't mix well.

I wish 1600x1200 monitors were more readily available without a super price premium

According to a lot of people that value other people's opinions on the internet, seeing edges of pixels = blurry, apparently.

I games on a 1080P144hz 27" for a few years with no issues, $80 for this is a steal.
