I'm in the market for a good monitor for photo editing. I'd love an IPS panel, but having trouble finding one in my budget. The only two I can seem to find in my budget are the Dell 2007fp and the HP LP2065. I've read that they use the same panel, so it comes down to a matter of choice between brands. Is this true? flatpanels.dk lists different panels (though they differ by only one digit): Dell with LG.Philips LM201U04 and HP with LG.Philips LM201U05. Of course this assumes you win the lottery and actually get the IPS panel...
So, are there any reasons to go with the Dell vs the HP? I'm leaning toward Dell because of some absolutely horrible customer service that I received from HP in the past. But if anyone here has any other input, I'd like to hear about it.
Also, if anyone knows of any other IPS panels in the <$500 range, I'd be interested in hearing about them.
Thanks.
Chris
