    What is the BEST 23-24 in LCD?

    I own a Dell 2405FPW and find it hard on the eyes for general work, a little too bright - contrast ration of 1000:1 and brightness level of 500cd/m2, but great for gaming. On the other hand I've used the Apple 23-inch Cinema Display and find it better for general office work, not as bright...

    ANYONE GOT A REFURB 2405?

    Just curious bench261, what was wrong with your monitor? Sent mine back for a piercing high pitched whine. Since I had it under 21 days Dell just gave me a full refund so I thought I wait a while before ordering another unit to give Dell time to work the bugs out.

    I have the normal power supply hum or buzz that’s barely audible when the monitor is cold, but once it heats up it’s as if someone literally throws a switch and the monitor starts to emit a much louder high pitched whine. The whine is so loud you can hear it walking past the door to the room. As...

    I’ve got a new Dell 2405FWP that develops a high pitch whine after 2 hours of operation that I’m going to contact Dell about sending back this week.

    All Dell 2405FPW owner please come in

    I’ve had my 2405 for two days and just noticed a whine coming from the monitor. I assume the source is the ballast for the backlight. Since this is my first LCD panel – how common is this on the 2405FPW? If it wasn't for the noise the monitor would be perfect.

    Dell 2405 FPW vs Samsung 243T

    I've researched Samsungs zero defect policy; it only applies in Korea. I wonder where all the panels that are returned in Korea are sold? :confused:

    Dell 2405 FPW vs Samsung 243T

    The Samsung 242mp (multifunction panel) isn’t a direct replacement for the 243T but an update to Samsungs 241MP multi function monitor that sells for about $4300 to $4600 today. Now who would buy a 241mp when the preorder price for its replacement is $1500 (JRProducts). For me the Samsung...

    Dell 2405 FPW vs Samsung 243T

    How does the Dell 2405 FPW compare with the Samsung 243T? Text crispness, color saturation and so on. I've been in the market for a 24-inch wide aspect LCD monitor for some time and was hoping once Dell released its 24-inch offering the price on the Samsung 243T would start to drop or...
