Samsung SyncMaster T260

$396.00 Est. at Amazon

from jammin, www.newegg.com
i really notice that the blacks are actually blacks.hdmi input if you want it for console gamesusb on the screen (also a con, see below) cons: the power button is just a touch sensitive zone.
from will, www.newegg.com
they're not that noticeable but they're there.the power button is touch sensitive and if the rooms dark it can be kind of difficult to figure out where you have to put your finger to get it to turn on
from Cekken, www.newegg.com
panel barely uses any power, menu easy to navigate with some decent built in auto features if you're too lazy to set contrast/brightness/color saturation yourself.
from ///T, www.newegg.com
i love the touch sensitive power button and the auto source.
from Dombre, www.newegg.com
the power led brightness can be adjusted and even turned off.

have you ever heard great sounding speakers built into a monitor without having more than 2 watts of power given to them?
from Allen, www.newegg.com
i'd like it to be faster because i'd be willing to turn it off more often to save power.it has a limited ability to display resolutions full screen on its own.
from N/A, www.newegg.com
the power light...arrrgh!
from www.amazon.com

Samsung Touch of Color T240HD 24 LCD HDTV

$402.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the t240 has a total of nearly twice as many pixels as the typical 19" monitor, so it will require twice the video card power to get the same performance as what you were used to with a 19" monitor.
from James, www.newegg.com
the power switch is not a button, but a touch-sensitive area of the monitor, making it very easy to turn on.
from N/A, www.newegg.com
cool touch power button feature :) cons: none other thoughts: i did not like the lack of a height adjustment feature but when i placed it on the desk it was perfect for me anyway.
from www.amazon.com
2.red led power light blinks when monitor is off, will annoy some
from joysofpi, www.newegg.com
the hint of red in the frame is also a nice subtle touch.the power button is also kind of cool cons: cheap base=screen wobbles a little bit with any kind of motion.

Asus 21.5" Wide 5ms DVI Black

$182.00 Est. at Amazon

from N/A, www.newegg.com
ok, so usually when a monitor (pretty much any monitor) is not being used by the computer, it will go into stand-by mode, which now-a-days is usually represented by an amber led on or near the power
from ADub, www.newegg.com
not really a con, but i didn't realize how much more video card power it would take to run games in widescreen.
from Tek2Go, www.newegg.com
other thoughts: the front mounted controls and menu are a nice touch, the power button is orange making it less likely to be confused with the other buttons.
from www.amazon.com
get your input cable (vga, dvi, or hdmi) and power cable, plug them in, and it's on.
from bozo, www.newegg.com
i bought a 3m adjustable stand for it and am very pleased.clear-red power button is kinda cheez, especially when power-on led is blue.

$149.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the old crt monitor was over 10 years old and was fading into history not to mention it was huge, hot and took a lot of energy.
from www.amazon.com
the images are bright and clear and it is much more energy efficient that my previous monitor.
from www.amazon.com
i actually 'installed' it (my son-in-law is so proud) and we love the bright colors, space saving convenience and it's energy efficient.
from N/A, www.newegg.com
the buttons respond with little to no pressure, and the power led's aren't bright like my work monitor.
from N/A, www.newegg.com
the blue power light isn't nearly as horrible as someone else stated - i was expecting a blazing led after reading that, but it's just a light.

i also really like the power on and and no signal led on the front of the monitor it is not to bright where it is a distraction.
from DigitallyBorn, www.newegg.com
powered on/standby non-stop.had a stuck pixel (blue), but some of that is to be expected from any monitor, i don't consider that a 'con' and it's very hardly noticeable.
from m4|nu, www.newegg.com
the power on light indicator is very helpful as it changes color depending on the monitor status.i mainly use this monitor for full hd gaming (cod4, assasins creed, mirror's edge...etc), no ghosting.
from Superbad, www.newegg.com
i cracked this puppy out of its packaging, saw its glossy screen and powered it up to find no backlight bleed and no dead pixels.

$292.00 Est. at Amazon

from hikusar, www.newegg.com
you can turn off the power light when the monitor is on (the light will fade on and off when it turns itself off and this setting cannot be changed) and it has a little manager where you can change
from TheObviousChild, www.newegg.com
i also appreciate a hardware design that looks as good in standby as it does when powered on.
from JoyAyako, www.newegg.com
but you can order one easily for 10-20$, so it's not that big of a deal (but there goes the $20 you saved on the newegg promo!) other thoughts: the power/control buttons are not "real" buttons

from Jason, www.newegg.com
there is also no annoying heavy power adapter, just a regular power cord that plugs right into the back.

another tick is the buttons on the side of the screen for power, etc, are not labeled or identified in any way.

from N/A, www.newegg.com

the monitor does not like refresh rates >60hz, and will press the user to reset to 60hz as soon as it powers up.
from Boggs, www.newegg.com
another one is that i'm careful to touch anywhere but the power button because it leaves finger print smudges...
