    Guys, I have the 2493HM and it's a spectacular monitor.

    When I bought it at best buy, I had them set up several other units next to it and this one was the best. I also think I bought it for 500 or so.

    DOn't know what the difference is but according to this guy, it's the same unit.
    Used Samsung 2493HM

    If this is true, BUT IT! It's dirt cheap. I intend to call Samsung tomorrow and ask them.

    George

    Also, what's the return policy from Dell if I should buy one and NOT like it compared to my other monitor?

    To bad its a cheap TN panel and a gimmicky 16:9 aspect ratio.

    I do not think they make any professional 16:9 monitors at all from any of the brands.

    Still though for normal use this is a good deal given its size. The taxes are kinda a pain too.

    HDMI is not a necessity on a monitor. As long as it has DVI, it is fine.
