Best Buy has this on Black Friday sale for $229 and Staples has it on BF sale for $199. I have searched the Web and can't find any detailed reviews of this model. Does anyone own one that can give feedback, or have a URL for a review of this model.

From what i can tell from the specs:

Pro's - good price for 19" LCD, hopefully good gamer at 12ms (minimal ghosting).

Con's - looks like 6-bit panel (only 16.2 million colors), no DVI input, DVD/Mltiimedia may suffer from colors & contrast (600/1).


I currently use a cheap 19" CRT (KDS that i bought for $68 with staples rebate). For that price i am happy with it, but figured now may be the time to upgrade to LCD. The 19" LCD will be 2" bigger then my 19" CRT (17" viewable), and i would like to get rid of the bulky CRT and replace it with a sleek LCD. I mainly use my PC for office apps, Photo editting, DVD ripping and burning, and web serfing, but do play one game alot (Aces High 2, OnLine WWII Combat Flight Sim).
