    Dual 1680 x 1050 vs Single 1920 x 1200

    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.

    Best non TN for under $500?

    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.

    Matte or glossy frame . What do you prefer?

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

    22" 1920x1200 resolution

    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...

    22" or 24"? Opinions needed.

    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...

    Think Apple will announce a refresh to the HD Cinema Displays?

    Perhaps Apple will wait 'til next year and use OLED

    Lenovo L220x Review at PRAD.de

    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...

    Lenovo L220X

    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.

    Lenovo L220X

    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...

    Lenovo L220X

    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.

    best monitor to minimize eye strain - text based work

    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.

    Which 1680x1050 monitor (20" or 22")?

    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.

    Your thoughts on the KDS 26" 5ms 19x12 ?

    Clearly a TN panel based on viewing angle.
