I know I've posted a question similar to this a while back, and I've been searching and reading all of the monitor suggestions in other monitor related posts, but I think I've got it narrowed down. The Sony G420S or Samsung 900NF. Has anyone used both of these and can give a comparison between the two? I was also wondering how the Conerstone P2460 compares with the other two. I've read some reviews of it, but they never compare it to any other monitors so it is hard to get an idea of how it ranks. I really wish I had the money for the Iiyama Vision Master Pro 454, but it is over my $400 w/shipping budget. Thanks in advance for any help.

Im looking at the same ones... let us know which one you go with and how you like it. I haven't decided yet between the Invar SM of the Viewsonics or the Apature Grill tubes of the sony or Sam.

I prefer the Samsung 900 NF myself. You may want to also look at the Philips 109P20, I think it's basically the same monitor and may save you a couple dollars. If I had the money though, I think the best 19 would be the Eizo T765 over the Iiyama.

I use a Sony G400 at home, and a friend of mine uses a 900NF. I personally like my Sony better, but some people prefer the Samsung. I suggest you try to find a place where you can see them both with your own eyes.

I don't think you can really go wrong with either of these monitors.
