      Dell 2408WFP
      Panel: Samsung S-PVA (confirmed by Dell, waiting for part number) Qisda OEM
      2xDVI-D (HDCP), DisplayPort, HDMI, HD15, Composite, S-Video, Component;
      6 ms (G2G);
      4 port hub (USB2);
      3000:1 Contrast Ratio, 400 cd/m ²(typ) Luminance output, 110% color gamut, PIP, card reader. Suffers from a relatively high amount of input lag. Monitor also has quality issues, as most text is blurry, and newer models of this monitor frequently lock up and require a reset to work again.

      If you are gamer, this is a great monitor, but if you are graphic intense professionals, go get S - IPS panel LCDs

      Actually this is quite good for photo work. There are "professional" monitors available, but at a few times the price. Gamers can get a TN panel for much less.

      #24, which competition? Please don't show me a TN panel - that's not "similar specs".

      This was at this price a few weeks ago. Maybe it will stay this time.

      Damn. I had to go and say I'd buy this as soon at it dropped below $500, and then when it does, I go super-broke. Ooookay, so I'll buy it for under $500 after the new year.

      Or, I'll just win the drawing. I do have 1000 monks meditating for me to win, so um, sorry everyone else.

      dam wish it was this price a week ago before I bought the samsung. Although the samsung has built in tv tuner. I might have gotten this instead.

      What the heck? The price went up! It was $267 just a few days ago and Ben's deleting all the posts that mentioned the price. Nazi!
