Samsung 206BW

[ihmcguinness]

Just bought a new samsung 206bw, manufactured in august, but there is no S, A, or C on the tag, so i can't tell about which panel it has. i've seen a lot of threads about the 226bw having real problems with different panels, but only a couple threads like this for the 206bw. how concerned should i be about which panel is in there? i bought this monitor cause it seems to be just about the best 20" (16x10) monitor out there, so i want to be sure it really is. thoughts?

yeah definitely the best 20 inch Tn panel out there. there is no S panel for the 206bw though the panels are usually A or W, both are very good. completely different than the issues with the 226bw panels. did you try looking for the panel info in the secret service menu? also, if that fails to work you can take off the back part of the casing by undoing the screws and find the manufacturer sticker. instructions for both should be here.
