I am a big fan of Samsung monitors, and want to buy a 2233BW, 2253BW, or T220

What is the difference between them? Other than the price? Samsung's website absolutely sucks for comparison... they give very little info, and these three show up as identical.

I've heard that some monitors can display 4:3 material correctly, and some others may automatically "stretch" it. I would prefer to have one that does not stretch. The 2253BW has "Aspect Ratio Control", which I think sounds like maybe it does this. Do the others not?

Oh, BTW, SIPS rules and none of the three you mention is SIPS.

What is "SIPS"?

That link is kind of backwards from what I'm looking for. I was able to find these three monitors, and get them next to each other, but I still have no idea what the difference is. One has a different dynamic contrast ratio, but I've heard that should be turned off anyway.

See the sticky "TFT Technology Breakdown and Model/Panel Index" at the top.
