Need you opinion on 22" or 24" LCD

[err]

Hi,

I have used the search feature but could not quite find the answer to my question

Anyway, its time to retire my old Mitsubishi CRT monitor that has been serving me for almost 8 years now

I have done some research and basically are down to Dell Ultrasharp monitor 22" or 24".

I am thinking of either purchasing 2 x 22" or 1 x 24" since the price would come out to be similar.

I will be generally using this monitor for office work / web design / photo edit.

Any comments from you guys? Why yes or why not?
Any better monitor out there that you would recommend?

TIA

For your applications, I would recommend the 2 22" monitors. The extra real estate is worth it for anything work related in my opinion.

There is not a single 22" S-IPS panel available today. They are all TN panels. Choose 20" or 24". If going with dell the 2007WFP may work out to an S-IPS as not all of them where. Honestly you should consider a used 2005FPW off of ebay until everthing settles down in the LCD market unless you really want 24" then you will need to buy new I suppose.

Thanks for all the replies.

I think I will settle with a single 24" for now I am not even going for the S-IPS panel from Dell, but will just get a TN panel (hopefully from CC on BF).

So when the LCD market settles down, and price of S-IPS 24" is around $400, then I will upgrade
