shoot this is tempting.

 

[Hubes]

Just purchased the 1901FP, cant wait for this bad boy to get here been waitin a while for this sucker to go on sale for 20%. Anyone here got this LCD, and how does it perform?

 

[BaboonGuy]

10% is stackable!

 

[weepul]

it's small business, so u need to add tax.

$520 for a 19" lcd (dvi-d) is a really good price!

//krunk (^_^x)

 

[aphex]

Damn, i got an email for $100 off $999 on Desktops/Laptops, but no 10% stackable

 

[huesmann]

Looks like they permanently boosted the price for the 2000FP. Was $1000 before the last 20%, then they upped it to $1100 when the 10% stackable came out.

If you're looking for an LCD you might want to jump now. Ars-Technica has an article about rising prices expected.

from the link:

...the supply of large format (anything larger than 10") LCD screens is becoming increasingly strained due primarily to laptop screen, and more severely, home TV sales exceeding expectations significantly. The margins for LCD-based home televisions are notably better than the computing market, making those products the focus for supply stricken manufacturers. As such, expect the average price for that new flat panel monitor you've been drooling over to start heading back up.

 

[Kreggo]

I really want the 20", but tax and shipping raises my final cost to $951.73.
I really can't justify dropping a thousand bucks on a monitor.

Awesome LCD.

Just checked my inbox, no 10% coupon in sight. Can't really make this one work w/o it.

 

[dailo]

anyone have an extra 10% off coupon they can pm me please?

 

[EzEddie]

since it is small business, you have to be in a small business right? what if I were to buy one with no business? would that be allowed?

 

[bauermj]

i know this is a stretch, but can anyone email me (bauermj@sbcglobal.net) a stackable 10% coupon?

 

[Heinrich]

Yes, just put your name down, or ME as business name. I've even done that with reps on the phone, they do not care.

 

[EzEddie]

sounds good, now if somebody would like to donate me an extra coupon i would be very grateful..i have a few dollars in paypal i can throw to ya...

I bought the 2000FP about 6 months ago on a great deal here. Think I paid about 800 after tax. Anyone out there who has the 2000FP -AND- one of the 18 or 19" models compare? I'm thinking about getting another one for photoshop, etc, but can't afford 2 x 20" models. The 19" looks pretty tasty at 500 and change.

The 20 seems fine for gaming, but I have to run it at 1280x1024 because my video card can't pump out 1600x1200 at enough FPS. This makes it a bit less sharp. That is another reason I thought the 19" at 1280 native would be a good choice for primary monitor.

 

[mafisto]

There's really no difference in overall quality between my 2000FP and my 1900FP. They both have great color, contrast, form factor. I've used both for work and for gaming, and I have to admit I like my 19" more for gaming. Though I have a vid card that can handle 1600x1200 pretty easily, the games seem to look better at 12x10. Not ALL games, however; RTS games are more fun (you can see a lot more) at 16x12, but otherwise you'd be just fine with a 19" for gaming. I also suspect the 19" has a better response rate.

My compromise has been 20" for work, 19" for play. Works pretty well, and you can always mix it up if you don't like it.

There have been articles like that before but they haven't panned out.

 

[upsciLLion]

When are the elusive 12 ms response time LCDs supposed to be coming out?

ups

 

[Aar0n]

There's just NO EXCUSE!!

Get yourself an ATI 9700 Pro as they are cheap but are last year's products. That's what I'm using. Games are just GORGEOUS at 1600x1200 on this monitor. I feel that if I hunched over a bit and stood on my chair, I could step right into Star Wars Galaxies.

 

[pprior]

Actually I have the 9700Pro. At 1600x1200 playing America's Army with high quality settings it drops FPS below playable rates. Could be my processor I guess (Dual 1.7 xeons). Either way, it don't work at 1600 unless you drop quality down, which I don't do.

Sounds like the 19" may be the way to go. I thought I had heard on earlier threads people say the 19 had more ghosting problems than either the 20 or the 18. I know I can see a slight amount (on the 20) when I"m playing RTS games, but it is not distracting. The sweet image everywhere else makes up for it.
