860966 2010-02-24 21:15:00 Thanks, thats good info.
I've decided to go for a 16:10.
I'm just trying to find a good one for under $500.

860967 2010-02-25 00:16:00 If you are wanting the cheapest top of the line 24" screen, the HP LP2475w, Dell u2410 and Philips 240pw9e are the cheapest IPS screens available ($700-1200).

More expensive ones are the 24" Apple cinema display (which uses the exact same panel as the cheapest 3; you're paying for the design and lack of input options/ergonomics) and HP dreamcolor (designed for use by dreamworks animation). $1500 and $2500 respectively :o

I don't know if there are different grades of TN, but if you go TN, you could just plop for the cheapest one assuming all TNs are the same. I don't have much experience with TN, but the screen I'm using at work now (22" TN) is fine for web browsing and doing work. It would probably be fine for everything else (gaming, movie watching, possibly even image editing), but I'm a perfectionist :p At home I have the lp2475w

860969 2010-02-25 03:45:00 There is also the Philips 240SW9F for $446.40 utopian201 (6245)
860970 2010-02-25 04:24:00 Yeh, I've got that & 7 others on my short list.
Just working my way through them now.
Probably cost me another $25 freight for an item that size.

860971 2010-03-12 23:53:00 Just in case anyone is interested, I bought a Philips 240S1SB.
Very happy with it.
Got a great deal from Aquila Technology.
Great people to deal with.
