But i wonder how bad Grade "B" is...

"Grade B: Monitor has similar reliability and functionality as Grade A product, however it will have small to moderate screen blemishing. Allowed blemishes are hair like scratches on the anti glare picture tube coating, or very slight, barely noticeable screen shadowing (permanent image on the screen left by static desktop image). We always make sure that blemishes allowed on our Grade B stock are very minor and do not impair functionality of the product. Grade B displays are excellent cost effective solution for computer gaming, DVD viewing as well as word processing, e-mailing and other general use. Grade B stock is covered by our basic 6 months product warranty."

it will have small to moderate screen blemishing, no thanks. but i wish i could see it in person first, im not THAT far from columbus...

i didn't know i had someone who spoke from expereince! i just thought it would be cool to watch HD in 1920x1080, your right about the text, it would be really small. 1600x1200 on a 19" would also be pretty hard to read. the P1110 is $246.57 shipped and the P900 is $144.50. im not sure if the extra 100 is worth the extra 2 inches.

Once you go with a 21" a 19" monitor is very small,I just look at a 19" and it looks very small to me now.

Get the P1110 it's worth every penny.

There's a few of us in the forums who have a P1110 just do a search in the archived post (90+days) and you'll find lots & lots of P1110 threads.
