Keep on working with this ultrawide LG IPS monitor. Its native resolution is 2560 x 1080, giving you more screen area in which to work in and providing a wider view for your design processes. It also uses IPS technology, which produces vivid colors and good contrasts from this 29-inch LG IPS monitor.

How is this item shipped? I live in a condo and have to buzz in deliveries.

It comes in one large box, if you have a elevator then one person with a hand truck can handle it. I paid Best Buy to deliver it and had them set it up, they made sure there was no damage and that everything was working.

Is the flame realistic looking?

Yes, it does look real, in fact we have two French Bulldogs and they love to lay in front of our gas fireplace, and when we set this up they laid right in front of it without skipping a beat, we might invest in a little air defector to blow the warm air down on them.

Will this monitor display multi-able sources at once; ie; 2 HDMI connections = 2 onscreen views?

yes, I use the split screen to view video of football officials mechanics and on the other screen have my observation spread sheet to record my information for the clips i review.

 Actiontec - N300 Router with ADSL2+ Broadband DSL Modem - Black
Actiontec - N300 Router with ADSL2+ Broadband DSL Modem - Black
This modem and router combo features a full-rate ADSL 2/2+ modem, a 4-port Ethernet switch and a dual-antenna wireless-N router in one unit for a wide range of high-speed connection options.
 

Is This compatible with Comcast.

No, the unit is to be used by the likes of Qwest, and it is a DSL Modem and wireless router all in one. You need a Cable Modem, and I would suggest the Motorola Surf Cable modem and a Linksys or Netgear wireless router. You can also purchase a Cable Gateway which is a combination of a cable modem and wireless router, they can be a little pricey. I also have Comcast and use the the Arris Cable Modem and the Nighthawk 3200AC router, both are on the high end of equipment.
