I recently purchased a 2407wfp HC and I notice the infamous ghosting problem. I am sending my monitor back for a refund and purchasing something else.

The ghosting is very noticeable when a light colored object moves across a darker colored background.

I have uploaded a video to give an example of what the ghosting looks like and to let potential buyers of this monitor know what they will be getting.

I am NOT bashing this monitor, the color and clarity is great, but the fact is that ghosting is a big problem and gamers will not be satisfied.

 
I do see what you're talking about on my 2407WFP-HC. As far as your comment on gamers not being satisfied, I'm more than happy with the monitor and I certainly game on it :D It's not even noticable during normal gaming, the only time I see it is when I slowly move the mouse across a dark background, like the hardforum gray. The monitor is great for gaming, this coming from someone who has been using a P1130 CRT for years.
 
...Haha, that looks like Gateway's 24" inverted ghosting, only not as severe. I hope Dell doesn't pull a Gateway and refuse to acknowledge/fix it. :(
 
Yes, it's been acknowledged by Dell as a serious problem and they're working on a fix.

It took four firmware revisions before the 2407WFP (non-HC) was acceptable, you'd think they'd have learned by now... :(
