I've been debating between the Dell 2707, 2407-HC, and BenQ's FP241W for months. After seeing the 24" and 27" side by side at FutureShop, I figured that 27 inch was too big for my needs and decided to save the money for an HDTV. I hear that the BenQ image quality is extremely good and the monitor is perfect for gaming/movies using a PC only. So I went with it... hopefully I won't be disappointed.
 
sounds good, I'm currently saving up for Dual 22'' LCD 5ms Screens ($700AUD total), the brand is Chemei and from what I have seen on the 19'' model they are pretty good, especially the text, just wish I had them now :D.

I really wanted to get Dual 24'' screen, though I just don't have the money to get them and 22'' is a pretty good size, way better then these current dual 17'' CRT screen I have right here, plus I am also going to need to get a new case, the one I am getting is $400AUD.
 
Just received the CMV 221D an hour ago here at the office. And from what I see so far, it's definitely not bad.

I won't really be able to do any color sensitive work on this one though, but it's good enough for movies and gaming.

I had the Dell 2407-HC and the BenQ FP241W side by side and planned to return one of them. Well the problem is that I liked them both so much and couldnt make a decision so I ended up keeping them both. They told me at BenQ that the Dell has the same screen anyway so I guess that is why they are so similiar.
 
Was the Dell always calld the 2407-HC is the (HC) part new ? Is this a new and differant monitor ? If so, what is new ?

The 2407 has been around for awhile. The HC is a new change to the monitor which stands for high color. It is a wide color gamut monitor.
 
From what I see the HC doesn't really make much of a difference unless you compare it side by side. Even then, it isn't drastic.

Haven't seen any lcd come close in terms of color accuracy except Eizo's CG241W. We use a few of those in the office and it's nice, but crazy expensive. o.o
