    What's available these days in a 22" monitor?

    Come to think of it, a 20" monitor would work too.

    I'm not looking to break the bank, but I want something that's better-than-average in quality.


    Thanks...

    The Dell 2209WA is a 22" monitor that uses a low-cost IPS panel. It's quite gorgeous and I recommend it warmly :) I don't think you can find many (or any...) better monitors at that price-range...

    Yeah, the 2209WA is on my short-list. I'll check out the 2253BW.

    Any other 20" or 22" monitors I should consider?

    Thanks again.
