I was just curious after careful inspection of the specs of both of these monitors... what is the difference? I can't seem to find any real difference.

931BW Specs:
http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/...subtype=lcd&model_cd=LS19MEWSF/XAA&fullspec=F

906BW Specs:
http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/...ubtype=lcd&model_cd=LS19MEWSFY/XAA&fullspec=F

There is a misprint on Samsung's site for the 906BW. It says it has a 3000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio, but it actually has a 2000:1 DCR, which is the same as the 931BW.

Other than minute differences in measurements (which I'm sure the sizes aren't any different, just that the person measuring them rounded/didn't round the number) I can't find what the difference between these two monitors is.

The 931BW became popular during Black Friday 2006 (sold at Best Buy for $130 or $140 I believe) and is not Vista Certified. The 906BW, however, IS Vista Certified. The 931BW is hard to find, however the 906BW is being sold at many common retailers and online stores.

Does anyone have any insight into this? Thanks in advance!
 
I'm interested myself. Samsung has released so many different models of screens I can't keep it straight.

17.6" x 14.3" x 8.0"
