1800FP is considered one of the best price/performance LCD in its class. It's your choice but I think the 1901FP has 30ms compared to 1800FP's 25ms.

That's what I would do but I am not a gamer.

Sell your friend the 1800FP, and buy the 1901FP for yourself but what if there's ghosting or a cluster of dead pixels?

Then again LOOK AT THE PRICE!

the 1901 has 4 usb ports and also has a 25ms refresh rate.

I think the 20% ends on the 17th. The 10% expires on the 19th. As mentioned in the other thread, you have a better chance of getting the coupon if you subscribe using a non-anonymous email account.

The 1800FP is a great LCD. I ordered a second one for a dual setup. I play BF1942 on with no problem or ghosting.

This IS a great deal.

I've been wanting a big LCD for some time now. Think I'm gonna hop on this deal. Which one is better for gaming? the 18" or 19"? I hear a lot of good things about the 18", what about the 19? Which one has less ghosting?

Dell always sends me codes at the wrong times. I don't understand why I didn't get this 10% coupon... :(

I think these LCD's will go even lower... a) Dell needs to refresh its LCD lineup (new models) and b) LCD prices still falling in general.

I received the 10% email less than an hour ago. Damn these deals. I have a perfectly good 3 year old 19" CRT, but I've been wanting an LCD for the past two years. Decisions, decisions.
