Thanks everyone for the input. In the end I decided that I was happy with the LG and would rather spend the extra $50 on getting a nice monitor arm (another suggestion from trusty Ben). That and I realized the sale ended the day after. :)

Rami – a Dell LCD would have been superior. Unfortunately their price tags are also superior. ;P

Why didn’t you get a Dell LCD? They are apparently superior!

I’m with spending the extra $50!

Ben told you not to spend the extra $50 because he’s going to get that one and didn’t want you to get it first.

I think I would have traded an extra $50 for the 22″ not for its size but for the response time. I spend alot of time on the computer and I feel slow response times really fiddle with my sense of vision. I’m not a particular fan of seeing multiple cursors when it moves across the screen very quickly.

However, I suppose if 5ms is fast enough that it won’t show multiple cursors, I would keep it. :-) Along the lines of what Tiffany’s saying: you don’t get rich by spending money!

“I can see clearly now”

Oh, how it mocks me…

I’d LOVE to get a new one, but I don’t think I can since my [bad] LCD is still pretty “new”.

As tempting as the 22″ is, I’d probably stick to the one you just bought if I were you. Save as much as you can!

I’m still debating whether I’m uber-junkie-worthy. 14 days to decide!

Oooooo….pretty. Though I have to say, being the uber-junkie I am, I would have shelled out the extra $50.
