Don't develop OCD like others have on this forum about panels. Unless you job requires perfect color quality the glow shouldn't be an issue. When playing games and surfing the net, the monitor is fantastic for the price.
Words of wisdom. There is a talk on TED.com by a Harvard professor about the "paradox of choice" that applies to Hard Forum big time. Basically, the more choices you have (beyond 3 or so) usually make you LESS happy since you are always second guessing if you made the right choice.
Anyway I got 3 of these from Dell.ca for $820 including tax/ enviro fees and I think they are perfect for me. I have been reading this forum for around 2 years and this is my first post. Just got some monster Polk bookshelf speakers for $139 that I feel "tie the room together".
Thanks for the inspiration everyone.
When "normal" people see my set up they always say something like "holy shit" etc.. That is when I realize how crazy our setups really are LOL!
