The Bottom Line	Though the NEC MultiSync LCD2180WGLED features new LED backlight technology, we're unconvinced it's worth $6,700. Most professional users will be better served by other, less expensive LCDs.	This is one of the best LCDs for people who need a monitor with precise color and shading capabilities.	The Samsung SyncMaster XL2370 looks great, performs well, and hits the right price point.	The 24-inch Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP display delivers across the board in performance, design, and features. It excelled with movies and games, making it not only an excellent choice as an entertainment display, but also great for everyday Windows tasks.	The NEC MultiSync P221W has some of the most accurate colors we've seen, but it is light on features.
