Description:
MONA has done a lot more than just rescue a flagging tourism economy. It has changed the city's body language, teaching it to stand up straight and look others squarely in the eye, even putting a swagger in its step.
Peter Timms leads us on a journey through his adopted city of Hobart, Australia's smallest, most southerly, least prosperous, but arguably most beautiful state capital.
From Hobart's convict legacy, its spectacular natural setting, heritage architecture and climate, to crime rates, economic hardship and new developments – not to mention the game-changer that is MONA – Timms explores the city with a mixture of affection, admiration, frustration and sadness.
Those who have experienced Hobart as tourists will be surprised and intrigued by the complex society and history this book reveals. Those who live there will surely discover their city anew, propelled by the author's fondness for it.
In a new introduction, Timms reflects on what has been nothing short of a tourism-driven revolution since Hobart was first published in 2009.
'…sometimes it takes an outsider to skewer a city more accurately than someone with a lifetime of familiarity with it. I simply couldn't put it down.' — Leo Schofield
'Three years ago, in 2009, Peter Timms published In Search of Hobart. Now his musings and reflections about Australia's oldest city, one where sedate Georgian elegance has been beautifully if inadvertently preserved, have been reconsidered, reappraised and updated. They fit tidily and aptly into what is now a consistently charming, intellectually consequent series on Aus

Samsung - Good Stuff
Size: 32-inch
If I could get my kid's face out from in front of it for a few minutes, I might write a better, perhaps more technical review than this: Bought it for her birthday (along with a gaming PC) and have not seen her since then, as she sit's in front of it gaming all the time now. Samsung makes great stuff, price was perfect, maybe I'll get a good look at it someday.

A fantastic display for both gaming and productivity.
Size: 32-inch
The Odyssey G55C delivers a remarkably immersive experience. The 1000R curvature naturally fits the field of view and significantly enhances focus during work or gaming. The QHD resolution paired with 165Hz refresh rate produces a sharp, smooth, and responsive display.
HDR10 improves contrast, and AMD FreeSync ensures tear-free motion. Even for long working hours, the Eye Care features help reduce fatigue.
Pros:
Deep 1000R curve enhances immersion.
Sharp QHD resolution with 165Hz smoothness.
Excellent color and contrast for its price range.
Low input lag, great for gaming and productivity.
Anti-glare coating works well.
Cons:
Limited USB ports (typical of gaming monitors)
Stand allows tilt only—no height adjustment.
Verdict:
A fantastic display for both gaming and productivity. This monitor provides premium performance at an exceptional value.

Top tier gaming monitor
Size: 32-inch
This monitor is the best of its class. The picture on it is better compared to its competitor, the LG ultra gear. The monitor allows you to maximize your Series X refresh rate. The HDR mode is actually brighter than statistics would give it credit for. LG's model has the same nits (300) but this literally just looks better. I just wish the stand was different, it could go without being completely plastic and awkward and non-adjustable. It has the proper mounting holes however so that it may be mounted.

Great monitor but not the monitor stand
Size: 32-inch
Overall, this is a very good monitor for the price. The picture quality is excellent, and the difference compared to my previous 27-inch 1080p monitor is immediately noticeable. The curved screen adds to the viewing experience, and there are plenty of settings available to customize the display, including good brightness options.
My main complaint is the stand. It feels a bit cheap due to its plastic construction and lack of adjustability. Considering the quality of the monitor itself, a better stand would have been nice.
The monitor does not include built-in speakers, which wasn't an issue for me but may matter to some buyers. Despite the stand, this monitor offers great value and delivers excellent overall performance.

Great for Videos and browsing
Size: 32-inch, Size: 32-inch
I did not buy this for gaming. I wanted a second monitor to browse while playing video games. With that being said it has great picture and doesn’t have any issues with refresh or delivering crisp picture quality. YouTube videos at 4K resolution is almost perfect. Its functions are user friendly and not complicated at all. The stand is rather long because of it being 32” and curved but it is strong and stable. It was super simple to connect and had no issues with compatibility with my PC. I wouldn’t use this for gaming especially if your running a high performance GPU. I’d spend a few hundred more for a better performing monitor
