LCD for the Office..

[TheVrolok]

My mother runs a Cardiology group practice and they've been upgrading computer equippment lately and she's been showing me the quotes.. quite frankly they're getting uber oversold and overpriced. So my mother said she'd let me handle it and I have been up until I start choosing the LCD monitors. I'm using an NEC 18in LCD1860NX at home on my gaming rig (yeah, not an amazing response time on it, but I still play a good number of games and don't have a problem) and I'm really happy with it, I believe I paid around 520 or so for it and that's about what I'd want to spend for these new ones for her offices, if not less. Can anyone suggest some office quality LCDs for me ?

What are your requirements? Will these be used in the office, or as part of the medical activities (perhaps to display results to patients or during a procedure). If these are going to be used within an OR I think there are certain requirements it has to meet ("medical grade" or whatever).
Otherwise, what size?

We use Eizo L685 18" LCDs at work and they're great for pretty much everything, but I know they'd suck at gaming. They're somewhat epensive.

The Sony SDM-X73 is made for office use... and it honestly doesn't have a single fault.
The automatic brightness adjusting technology can save a lot of electricity and definately help pay for the monitor after years of use.

I'm with this all the way. Both are excellent office quality monitors (very high contrast, contrast, brightness) and the VP171b is the best gaming LCD monitor there is. I am very pleased with my VP171b!
