I have to go to to work, so I'll type this out quick. I was browsing Best Buy recently and saw that the L227WTG is on sale for $289, and I just got my $600 stimulus check put into the bank. Since I didn't plan using all of that $600, I thought maybe the L227 would be good. I currently have a 215TW which, of course, is fantastic in many ways but it has always strangely bothered my eyes from time to time. I really can't look at the screen for very long at all and, considering my eyes do have a light sensitivity problem, I figured I should take this chance to get a new one. I do play games and watch movies with the monitor, but text work is, in the grand scheme of things, done more often. I know that it also has some ridiculous input lag and I have seen this, but I was able to adjust to it. It would be a shame to get rid of it (my brother would like to take it if I get a new one), but I'm getting tired of this issue.
I know I was talking on here before about screens (and about the fact that I can see the anti-glare coating very easily) but ultimately decided to wait a little bit. Do you people (primarily the OP) still think the L227WT would be best? Like before, down the line I know I will have a good HDTV for movies, but I do enjoy watching them on here (with WinDVD 9) as well as looking at various photos/artwork. I noticed the Samsung T220 there as well, which is obviously more expensive since it isn't on sale. Is that one any better than the L227WTG? Like I've seen here and elsewhere, the L227WTG will clearly satisfy all my needs with flying colors (unless there is some new problem I don't know about).
I saw that they have an open item hooked up to a computer on display which is a 24" LG monitor, the L246WP. This is an 8-bit P-MVA, correct? How do you people feel about that one? I wasn't able to really get any good look at it, so I am unsure on the quality. Is this a type of monitor that is so good, it would be worth the extra money? I am aiming for 22", but a 24" would fit and I would be willing to go for it if it is worth it. I just don't simply know anything about the model. I think the price was around $400-$430 or something like that. Is there anything wrong with that particular model? I have no qualms about getting a 22" TN display after using this nice S-PVA (since TNs are pretty good nowadays, and I don't REALLY need the absolute BEST of the best anyway), but if this a good find, I'd absolutely go for that instead.
Thanks!
