Advantages: A beautiful city with lots to offer Disadvantages: Italy itself can be a little expensive
a visit. Entrance into this will cost you 8 Euros, again roughly £6.60 and I assure you that this is money well spent. The Arena is a Roman Amphitheatre and is very impressive in my opinion. On entering the arena you are suddenly transported back in time as you marvel at the architecture within. The queues for this attraction can be rather extensive but the queues do move relatively quickly so you shouldn't find yourself waiting for more than 30 minutes. I would however strongly recommend that you ensure that you leave yourself at least another 30 minutes to explore the wonders of the Arena, more if you are particularly interested in architecture or Roman history.
Now I'm afraid I cannot comment on the interest of Verona's Archaeological, as I'm afraid I did not have time to visit this during my visit but I did manage to take a brief look ...

the station. There are busses to and from many varied destinations that arrive at the main bus station (next to the railway station)
*** What is there to see? ***

I would say it is one of the nicest places I have ever been to, quite a strong sentiment, but if you visit, you will see what I mean.
Verona is more than a city, If is an art & culture tour. Verona is actually a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the people who live here are proud of that.
*** Museums ***
There are lot of museums around the city centre. They are all 3 - 4 Euro to go into.
My pick of them was the Museo Archeologico situated at the Teatro Romano, there are some fantastic ...

Advantages: A Cheap, but good performing LCD monitor Disadvantages: Contrast ratio could be improved
I've had my 22" Hannspree Verona for a while now, and I've only got a good opinion of it. I purchased it from Misco for £145, where I also added an HDMI cable. That's right - It has both VGA and HDMI connection sockets.. Whether you want to hook it up to your PC (my graphics card has an HDMI port) or your DVD player you can do it with the increased clarity afforded by HDMI.
***Features***
The monitor itself boasts several features in addition to the HDMI connectivity. With a maximum resolution of 1680 x 1050 there is ample of space on the desktop, and allows for a large display area. It features a contrast ratio of 1000:1, and an image brightness of 300cd/m2. Whilst the contrast ratio isn't the best out on the market, it is more than sufficient for most daily tasks (If you use its dynamic contrast then you can increase this ...
