(...) It's a two-year-old Dell model from a previous PC. The only thing I don't like about it is the stupid interface for adjusting its settings (there's three buttons and one dial to do everything--it's incredibly cumbersome). As soon as good 22" (...)

(...) Ah. I've got a Gateway-branded Mitsubishi 21" "vivitron" at work - really nice. I have an Optiquest v95 at home - also pretty good.

(...) Not me. Text is how to judge a good monitor. I have a 20 in Apple Trinitron display sitting on the shelf behind me. Games look AWESOME on it, but trying to read text on it gives me a headache.
