xt, I finally saw an LG-L227WTG in person today and it is by far the best 22" monitor I have ever seen -- totally blows away anything Samsung has or used to have IMO, as well as most of their 24" TN-based line. I actually think the glossy screen adds to the vibrancy too, but it's not overbearing like with the HP 2408.
Only issue I have to resolve is whether or not something like the BenQ G2400WD at 24" would be worth stepping up to for an extra $100. That would be a sight-unseen purchase, however since no one carries BenQ anywhere near me. Any thoughts?
Harle posted a great deal on the Benq for a holiday sale that ends on December 23rd.
BenQ G2400WD is $270+30 shipping=$300, if you go in on the ncixus.com sale. There should be no tax. You can also put $13 for their Express Coverage-Dead Pixel Guarantee. It allows you up to 3 exchanges if you have a dead pixel.

This should make it about the same price as the LG-227WTG. Once you include shipping and taxes for the LG.
