    Hi!

    I am looking for a WUXGA (1920x1200 or 1920x1080) monitor (buying in Canada). I am looking for one that is as small as possible (20'' or 21.5'' for 16:9). Budget is $300CAD max. I don't need top image quality anything half decent will do. HDMI connection is preferred, but I can always get a HDMI->DVI plug.

    The monitor will not be used for gaming or any important image editing. Multitasking will be it's primary task. It would be the best if I can get it from a retailer like Bestbuy/Staples/Futureshop.

    Many thanks! :)

    I don't have a credit card... :p I am changing address soon too. So its just abit of an awkward time. I'd just prefer to but it from a brick and mortar so I can have it sooner haha!

    (didn't realise a debit card in this part of the world was this useless. >.<'')
