Samsung 216BW for $249.99 AR Fry's B&M

[Drunkentig3r]

Just wanted to point out yet another spectacular Fry's sale, this time on a shiny new Samsung 216BW 21.6'' Widescreen Monitor-comes with all the bells and whistles you could want.

I just wish Samsung started going back to posting the manufacturer code so we could know who its actually made by-I know some people have been burned by the infamous 226BW hassle. I tried checking the back of my monitor, but didn't see any of the lettering shown on the 226BW-it just saids "216BW." Anyone have a sure-fire way of checking?


Anyways, Here is the sale pic for itfor it in case your local Fry's might not honor it-YMMV.

A better deal? Samsung 225BW at Buy.com for $244.95 AR and 5% off coupon + free shipping. One of the few 22" WS monitors that comes witha height adjustable stand.

How does the 206BW compare to this 216BW in actual specs because obviously the 216BW is larger. In Maximum PC they have the 206BW as their pick as the Budget LCD and I am looking to get it because my 19" non WS LCD is good but I want WS

I think all the 216s are the same. Although, I own 2 of the C panel 226s and they are fantastic, i've side-by-side compared them to both other panels and I can't tell the dif after good calibration.
