I more or less accidentally wound up with a 1920x1200 (22" not 24") and a 1680x1050. The monitors are a little mismatched, but this setup works well enough for me.

You could consider a Lenovo L220x http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=27705&vpn=4433HB2&manufacture=Lenovo Btw, prices on the NCIX site I linked to are in Canadian dollars.

I think I prefer glossy in general. Some matte finishes are very noticeable and, for me, quite offensive. But others are rather unobtrusive.

I have an L220X. It isn't perfect, but is perfectly adequate for my purposes until new monitor tech becomes available. I have an NEC 20WMGX2 sitting beside it. I slightly prefer images on that S-IPS panel, but the difference isn't overwhelming. Personally I prefer it to the 24" Benq MVA I...

I have a Lenovo L220X and a NEC 20WMGX2 together - obviously much wider than a "too-wide" 24". The Lenovo has the resolution of a typical 24" so has a tighter dot pitch. Apparently you'd find the text too small on both of these monitors unless you increased text size, but for me it is fine...

Perhaps Apple will wait 'til next year and use OLED

I don't I don't know where you found your specs, but the L220x has the same resolution as 24" monitors in a smaller area, therefore has tighter dot pitch. The Prad.de review gives pixel size as 0.247, while that of a 24" monitor is 0.270. Subjectively for me the image is noticeably less...

My Lenovo isn't at all washed out looking, but I do prefer the NEC image and video quality. I hope they send back a decent one. From other posts to the forum I gather that the creeping discoloration that showed up on mine is a common problem. I should also mention that my NEC didn't handle...

It is the NEC that has the problem.

My L220x arrived Tuesday. I'm an IBM employee and got it at a discount. I'm having a busy time and can't really take time to do a good review, but I'll post a quick impression. Colors are indeed quite vivid. Sometimes the effect is pleasant, sometimes a bit odd. The matte finish on the...

I have one on order. It should arrive in the next few days and I'll try to post some feedback. There are a few review threads around already.

Take a look at the recommendations from the Anandtech forums: http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.aspx?catid=31&threadid=2049206&enterthread=y fwiw the Doublesight 263N is included among the recommended monitors for office work.

Almost all 22" monitors have TN panels. A non-TN 20" LCD will be better quality. Unless you strongly prefer the looser dot pitch of a 22" or feel you need a very fast response time for your games, I'd suggest a 20" monitor.

Clearly a TN panel based on viewing angle.

How noticeable is the anyi-glare coating on this monitor? Thanks
