Best Bang/Buck for a 20"-22" monitor

[Fardor]

I want to get a 20"-22" monitor. Budget <$230

I think these two seem nice:
Acer AL2216Wbd 22"
Chimei CMV 221D 22"

They both have good reviews and are very closely priced (AR). Would you recommend either of them?

Other models I should know about? Any awesome deals from other sites anyone knows about?

THANKS.

I've had the Chimei from New Egg for about 3 or 4 months now, and have been pretty happy with it. Colors look good, although it took a bit of time to get the colors set right.

Also, I got my $30 rebate without any trouble in around 5-6 weeks.

maybe if i get it i'll ask you how to "get the colors set right"

It's the same panel as the one used in that Acer, if memory serves. Pick whichever you like more.

I would go chimei cuz its cheaper and spose to be same panel. Crap build tho.
