<description><![CDATA[The superslim E2290V has one of the thinnest monitor profiles we've seen.(Credit:Eric Franklin/CNET)LAS VEGAS--Over the last few years, with the advent of LED backlighting technology, monitor panels have been on a hard-core diet or sorts, getting thinner and thinner. How thin you ask How about a thinness of 0.28 inchesThis week atCES 2011, LG presented what may well be the thinnest monitor ever built. Hmmm, even using the word &quot;built&quot; seems to betray the sleek elegance this monitor conveys. &quot;Forged&quot; seems like a more appropriate term. &quot;Forged&quot; seems even more appropriate when the E2290V's striking metallic-chrome chassis is revealed. Suffice it to say, this one won't have much trouble standing out among the plethora of black, plastic cases that epitomize most monitor designs.The display will also make use of LG's Super LED power-saving mode.Incoming specs:1,920x1,080 resolution250 cd/M2 brightness10 million:1 Dynamic Contrast ratio2ms refresh rateVGA, DVI, HDMI connections Look for more info in the coming months.LG's superslim E2290V monitor (photos) <br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Details continue to leak out about Goldman Sachsa4a4 $450 million investment in Facebook (even though neither company has actually confirmed the deal). I think the most interesting tidbit comes from Dan Primack at Fortune: While some writers and analysts have suggested that the Goldman investment is a prelude to Facebooka4a4s initial public offering, Primack (citing a a4Asource who manages money for high-net-worth clients a4 including Goldman clients who have been solicited to invest in Facebooka4) says ita4a4s actually a way for the company to stay private.Facebook plans to use some of the money to buy back its shares from employees, he says. Goldman wants to raise $1.5 billion from its clients (on top of the $450 million investment)  to invest in Facebook, but the amount that Facebook accepts will be determined by employee interest in the buyback, Primack says. The idea is that as interest grows in purchasing shares through services like SecondMarket, Facebook wants to stay under the Securities and Exchange Commission&amp;'s 500-shareholder limit. If Facebook crosses that limit, it would have to disclose the same financial information as a publicly-traded company.(The SEC is reportedly investigating those secondary markets, particularly the disclosure rules for the companies and investors. The Facebook-Goldman deal is reportedly increasing the SECa4a4s interest.)Goldman clients definitely want to buy into Facebook, according to Primack and a report in the Wall Street Journal, who both say that Goldman has decided to stop accepting new investors on the deal tomorrow. Primack says the firm has already received $3 billion worth of investment requests.The other details reported are more on the fun side. Goldman is telling its clients that Facebook has more than 600 million registered users, according to Business Insider. (The last publicly disclosed number was 500 million.)
