22" professional display (LG E2211PU-BN vs Viewsonic VX2228WM-LED)

[Revolution09]

I'm looking for a professional grade 22" display, something with USB ports and tilt, swivel, etc adjustment. These are two monitors I have come across and just wondering if anybody has experience with them. Haven't been able to find any reviews and don't like buying something blindly!

What makes you think these are professional grade displays? They both sound like cheapo TN units to me.

What are you planning to use the monitor for? I'm sure someone can point you in the right direction with a little more info.

For a kickass, pro quality monitor, at a mid-range price, take a look at the Asus PA238Q.

I am not able to hit the first link, the one to the page at Newegg. Why? I get:

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.tkqlhce.com.

Just tried the link and it works perfectly. Something must be amiss with your Firefox.

As a workaround, just go to Newegg and search for Asus PA238Q.

I have this same issue... can someone PM me how to fix it

 

[corkyg]

OK - I just created this link with Firefox. (Too darn many updates and changes!)

If that doesn't work for you, Google Asus PA238Q and select the Newegg one. There is no involvement with www.tkqlhce.com. That l;ooks like one of your Firefox privacy settings.

Yes, that was my workaround. Still, I wonder why links to product pages don't work here for me. Maybe it's Ad Block Plus. The link corkyg just created does work for me, though. My problem is when www.tkqlhce.com is involved, don't know what that's about.

Very possibly AdBlock Plus. It does have something to do with your Firefox privacy settings. Should be easy to check - turn 'em off and then try the link.

On second thought, tkqlhce.com is classed as malware by some. It is an interposed ad system by Commission Junction - try running a full scan and cleanse it from your system. It is local, and is redirecting links to it.

Google Comission Junction Removal and go from there. It is often a cookie in Firefox.

Uhm, those interposing commission links are put in by the Anandtech forum servers.

Interesting! They don't have any effect on IE, but they seem to prevent Firefox from getting there. Seems a bit strange.

Good info, Lasrry. What's the fix?

OK, so I believe you've established that Commission Junction is not doing the interposing (i.e. it's not happening on my machine) and changing my Firefox privacy settings won't change this, nor a search/cleansing of my system. It's being done on the Anandtech servers. So, Adblock Plus is doing the weeding here? Make an exception in Adblock Plus?
