Moved to the right area.

Depends on what your video card and wallet can handle.

A lot of folks swear by the Dell LCD's.

This thread will be a worthwhile read if you're interested in good monitors.

I have a cheepy monitor but my friend has a Dell and it's really nice it's a 19 inch I think!

I have heard good things about Dell monitors and LCDs for a long time. I myself still have a nice 17" CRT that says Manufacture Date 1998
No color fade or other problems, displays 1280x1024 nicely

Dell Monitors are very good. I have the Dell 2005FPW, I love it. It's been replaced by the 2007FPW

Ditto on Dell, I have a couple of the 2005FPWs, and couldn't be happier.

Who is the original OEM for the Dell LCD monitors anyway?
Does anybody know???

Samsung?
LG?
Dell?
????

I would buy Viewsonic if I had to get a monitor. Don't really want to deal with Hell...err...Dell.

Since these two displays are so similar, we thought it only necessary to review both side by side. Several sources have claimed that the 2005FPW had numerous discoloration problems and generally poor image quality. Obviously, if one of our displays demonstrates imperfections, we would expect to see both displays to be flawed. However, the Dell and Apple displays utilize different backlights, so we are open to the thought that there will be some dissimilarities between the units. Let's take a closer look at our 20" displays
