OK, but it has much better viewing angles than the other TN panels on display. I use Dell 1905's and the viewing angle is similar to those. TN's are usually pretty bad.
I saw a new 22" LG W2252 the other day on sale at my local Fry's for $289.00 ( retails for $319 ) and it really looked nice~!
I have the Soyo 24", and it's great. The edges are little bigger than the Dell's I used to own, but over all, it the design look decent. The picture quality is simply amazing. It also has build in speakers, don't know if it's a plus for any one else, but it is for me.
Now only $269 at Fry's for their 4th of July sale, good till Tuesday. Saw the same price at Circuit City too!
This is an old thread but I have twin Dell 2407FPW sitting in portrait mode and I can't live without full page display's anymore. Looking at pdf's, webpages and excel spreadsheets is so much better, plus with a decent video card, these are pretty damn sharp monitors. a few extra hundred bucks is well worth it.
The Dell Business Outlet is currently selling the 2407WFP's for $499.00 I believe that is an S-PVA panel display too! But no HDMI hook-up. The 2408WFP's are on sale for $599 new right now, down from $679. http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/wiki/index.php?title=Master_Monitors_List
One rule of thumb with monitors -- don't go cheap. The comfort of your eyes is not worth the savings. At the same time, compare oranges with organges. The Samsung has a twisting stand. You are paying extra for that.
Agreed. This is no place for short-cuts. Why would anyone want to be "cheap" with a screen that they sit in front of for almost 7 hours a day - - - especially if you are getting into your 40's when there is a huge tendency to go farsighted. Doesn't make sense to skimp on your eyesight, all for $100-$200.
i have both the dell and the samsung - i cant tel a difference in them at all - i use the dells as duals and the samsung as a signal. save the money. mb
