I could use some help with choosing a monitor...

[Chaotic42]

15 inches... .31mm dot pitch... 1024x768... 75Hz refresh... 6 years old... Makes bubbles jealous...

Yes, I know. With a monitor like that, I should be on top of the world. Being the spoiled child that I am however, it's time for a new display.

I'm looking, in the sub $400 range, for a high quality monitor. I'd like a *flat* screen, 1600x1200, etc, etc. You know what I mean. Anyway, I've been looking at two models. The $200 19" KDS XF-9P and the $320 Iiyama Vision Master Pro 452.

I've been unable to find a lot of really good reviews (The Iiyama page does give two review links) about the two.

Can anyone give me any feedback about these? Are there better options out there? Any advice would be appreciated. I'm hoping to order tomorrow, but I'd much rather wait a few more days than get a junky display.

Thanks in advance,
Chaotic42

I am waiting for new monitor from Viewsonic to come out though (new Dimotron M2 tube). Viewsonic monitors are great !
