A superb budget option with exellent quality
Pros: fast large colourfull screen
Cons: slight flicker at 75hz
I was initialy worried about the quality of this screen as I have always used Dvi flat screens in the past, but after placing next to my apple flat screen which has the old adc connection, found it to so much better in every way.
So much so that I am tempted to sell my old apple 15inch screen and buy a brand new matching dell screen for the same money!!! which shows the bargain at which these screens are.

great came with dell e510 computer
Pros: response time of 8ms, feels solid, 500:1 ratio, awesome bright display
Cons: VGA only, no USB connections
When playing Battlefield 2 I have not notice any ghosting. With a response time of 8ms it should be great for any gaming needs.
I also had no dead pixels, which was my number one worry.
I am very impresed with this moniter even with vga. I don't think anyone will be disapointed unless you have to dell with Dell customer support.
