New monitor

[Influenza]

My 20" crt is 8 years old now and i fancy a change , got some cash left from my cars MOT (didnt cost as much as was estimated).

Anyway got my eye on this LG W2361V 23" LCD Widescreen Full HD Gaming monitor 1920x1080 300cd/m2 50,000:1 2ms VGA/DVI/HDMI Tilt Stand 3yr Onsite Warranty - Gloss Black - Ebuyer and wanted to know peoples opinions on it. My m8 said he uses LG monitors at work and they are good quality , the reviews seems decent aswell.

Seems like a nice monitor. I've had my eye on this one for a few weeks after reading the computer shopper review;

Philips 230C1HSB 23" Full HD LCD Monitor 1920x1080 12000:1 (Dynamic) 300cd/m2 2ms VGA/DVI-D/HDMI/USB Multimedia Glossy Black - Ebuyer

Always samsung when it comes to TVs/monitors in my opinion.

EXDISPLAY Samsung SM2343BW 23" TFT Monitor 2048x1152 20000:1 300cd/m2 5ms W/Mount H/Adjust VGA/DVI Black 3 Years Warranty - Ebuyer seems to be alright, with 2048x1152 resolution as well. If you're not after that higher resolution though, search through these. I agree 23" seems to be the best price-quality ratio these days...

Agree completely.

I'm against this move to 16:10 monitors generally, they are fine for games and watching films etc. but the lack of vertical pixels make them a pain in the arse for most work related stuff, Word, Excel etc and especially working on portrait orientated photos.

All our work PCs have just been changed, they now have Vista instead of XP Pro and 1440x900 screens instead of 1280x1024. I really miss the extra 124 vertical pixels. Apparently Win 7 hasn't been signed off as suitable for the NHS yet, and they have to change all the PCs by the end of April

Will be getting three of these when they come out in the uk (Soon), and using them in portrait mode with eyefininty. Current prices up (but no stock) are £310 each.

I currently work in a health informatics service in the NHS, and we're looking at windows 7 for deployment later this year/early next (basically once they sort out IE8, or heaven help us, universal browser support for the central apps), as there's no point at looking at vista at this point!

I've just bought one of the below LG monitors, only a 22" but it is LED backlit and rather lush. Am using it via HDMI from my Radeon 5850 and the quality is great.

LG E2250V 22" Widescreen LED Monitor [] 22" LCD

Just don't expect it to do 1920x1080 through a VGA cable with a DVI adapter on the end. It WILL refuse to play ball.
