I have to say--I definately think Acer machines are the crappiest of the crappy, BUT I must also say that My Acer lcd monitor
is freaking sweet. The picture is gorgeous. Of all the monitors I've checked out, nothing else compares.

yer so crazy.
I love my Acer but it's too bright. Everytime I want to post something I have to take that into consideration. pisses me off.

Price<->quality I'd go for the Samsung Syncmaster 22".
In size/MS speed/colours they are one of the lowest in price who can bring quite good quality, even for gaming pc's.
Right now in Belgium these monitors are about 180 Euro's and I'm planning to get one myself anytime soon
So in case you are looking for a cheap 19" Samsung 920N, pm me

wow dude... you still have the same ashtray!!!! and whole setup from the last time only this time ur monitor is diff

or if you're looking for something less expensive...

Dell 2407-HC

or a little cheaper still but using the same panel as the Dell
Hyundai W241D-PVA


Basically PVA panels give you the best colour accuracy and the widest viewing angles.


Oh..THis is the least expensive PVA screen I could find and it's very highly rated.

Digimate 24" L-2442WD


Check out some buyer reviews here (it is the same monitor by the store rebranded it under their own name)
