http://slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.php?t=3280906 250$ after a 50$ rebate?! A year ago 400$ was considered a good deal for a monitor of that size! So tempted to get 3 for matching config and finally some god damn bezel comp! |

Here comes the stupid question. Whats so amazing about this monitor? $250 for a 24" doesnt sound anywhere amazing to me. Its obviously not for gaming so this must be a graphic designers dream monitor or something. I guess the guys who is excited to see this deal also paid a pretty penny for the Nvidia Quadro in his rig?!? |

| Post subject: | IPS panels offer the best |
IPS panels offer the best color reproduction and the best viewing angles. They are highly desirable for Eyefinity, as your outside panels sit at a sharp angle to the viewer, and TN panel color shift much more easily. They are basically required for any portrait configuration as the pixels in a TN panel are "oriented" for landscape and the shifting happens very quickly. |

I think these IPS panels are not the same "quality" that they were, for example there are a lot of e-IPS panels now, not that these are "bad" just not as upmarket as the days gone by 20WGX2 for example. |

The key is it's HP. HP is killing most of their non-printer side of the business. Don't expect future warranty work on HP computer products when purchasing. |

HP is not "kiling most of their non-printer side of the business". They are spinning off the PC-side into a separate company. All warranties will be honored. |

I'm seeing 340$ for the Dell. Though that is alot cheaper than last year. I dont think I've seen such a huge yearly drop before. |

| Post subject: | 24" not a surprise, you |
24" not a surprise, you should mention that it's a 16:10 , now that's a surprise. Those things are usually way more expensive compared to 16:9 monitors. Plus the HPZRxxW series are really good. |
