Their goal for the first year was $30 million in sales, and they achieved $29.9 million. The store benefited from its proximity to Ohio State University and the scientific think-tank Battelle Memorial Institute, which provided a large customer base and a source of computer-literate salespeople. The first Micro Center store was established in a 900 sq ft (84 m 2) storefront located in the Lane Avenue Shopping Center in Upper Arlington, Ohio. Micro Center was founded in Columbus, Ohio in 1979 by John Baker and Bill Bayne, two former Radio Shack employees, with a $35,000 investment. It was founded in 1979, and as of 2021, has 25 stores in 16 states. Micro Center is an American computer retail store, headquartered in Hilliard, Ohio. All in all, it seems like a reasonably complete package for $450.The Apple department in Micro Center Queens, New York There's a 100-mm VESA mount on the back, and the stand offers height, swivel, tilt, and rotation adjustments. It has an integrated USB hub that supports SuperSpeed transfer rates and fast-charging devices. Input is limited to a single DisplayPort connector, but the G2460PG isn't a barebones affair. Either way, the screen is probably more appropriate for gaming than photo editing or graphic design. Those do exist in the TN realm, but that color depth is more commonly achieved by combining a 6-bit panel with some form of dithering. (IPS displays typically don't support refresh rates above 60Hz.) Other specs include a 350 cd/m² brightness rating, 1000:1 contrast ratio, and 1-ms response time.Īlthough AOC claims the screen produces 16.7 million colors, it's unclear whether the panel is a native 8-bit implementation. The 160° vertical viewing angle suggests the screen is based on TN tech, which is to be expected given the pricing-and the high peak refresh rate. The G2460PG can refresh its 1080p panel at up to 144Hz. That's easily the lowest price we've seen on a monitor with variable refresh tech. Micro Center is selling the G2460PG for only $449.99 right now. The display was scheduled to arrive in Europe the following month, and it's finally available stateside. AOC announced its 24' G-Sync monitor back in June.
