tested -

viewsonic 2012W
BenQ FP202W
NEC Multisync 20WGX
Viewsonic VX2025
Acer 2032WA


and well they concluded that the Viewsonic VX2025 was pretty much the best choice, with the awesome NEC coming in second

Why didn't they test the dell 2007?

Going by the amount of reviews of this monitor, I'm thinking it's because the 2007 actually doesn't exist.

'cause either they can't afford it or they're just simply anti-Dell

Yeah, lack of the 2007FPW is a little shady

Hmm, they used to have a paragraph or two about not including the Dell, don't know where it went.

We tried to get the Dell for several weeks - I think we planned this article about 6-8 weeks ago. After numerous phone calls, broken promises and let downs, we're still waiting for their panel to show up at our office...

They couldn't even get Dell to send them a 2005, much less a 2007. This was originally in the article, but now it's just in their discussion.

this review is a few days old, so id imagine that at the time, they couldnt get a hold of one

I got the VX2025 and must say it blew me away on almost every front. The first thing that struck me was how sharp the picture is, much sharper then my old 19" samsung NF which was pretty high quality in it's time. No ghosting and very good color reproduction with deep blacks. I heard this monitor uses the same internals as the high end NEC, only it does not have the glossy screen or the dithering that doubles the response and contrast. Not sure if that is true but I can't see PQ being much better.

Can't beat a high end 8 bit screen that can be had for under $400. Sometimes you can find this monitor for under $360 which is amazing.

There is only one flaw which dosen't bother me too much. If you look at this screen off center, you see what looks like a slight backlight bleeding on whichever side you are off center towards. It is not actually backlight bleeding, but if your not sitting deadcenter, it could be annoying.
