Hey, they cheated! The Q was down to two - now refreshed to 9! The time was also down to 22 hours (LOL) and they doubled that too. Hmm....

Make sure that there is a "RETURN POLICY"
on any LCD that you purchase via Net .....OR.... Phone.

Many company's will not accept an LCD return -
so if you get a monitor with a bad Pixel in it.......or whatever.......TOUGH !

Caveat Emptor...........Buyer Beware

Samsung cannot compare with NEC as far as monitor / image quality is concerned.
I have both. Other brands I have no experience with.

as well as all the other pointers you might want to use a compare site like www.froogle.com or www.mysimon.com or others

Just curious, why is the black so coveted over the white?

Here for $720

not according to PCWORLD.

by the way, sams club ( www.samsclub.com )has 17" NEC & Samsung monitors for $400.

i have three of the 17" samsung and i can't imagine the image any better or the text any crisper. the pixel is .26mm.

just a thot, you could buy TWO of these for the price of one of the 19" models.

and not according to PCMAG.

but in the inerest of fairness, truth, justice -"Tom" likes the NEC

Quote from Tide31:
Dell 19" LCD's for around $500 or so apiece

I thought they were closer to $800, which would make a 191T less expensive if you shop around.

Good catch. Some of these web companies are really sneaky.

I've often wondered that myself. Can anyone offer an explanation?

So you can write notes to yourself in the dust.

NEC 1850e 18" LCD on ebay, item number 3409714851, new in sealed box, $520 on "Buy It Now." I have two of these, they're great, and $520 is as low as I've ever seen them. This auction expires Sunday at 4:25 EST.
