22" Widescreen TFT - £200 budget

[Dareos]

I'm looking to get the best monitor i can for £200, i really can't justify the expense on a Dell 2407, much though i would like to...

so, any ideas? Its for gaming and reading the hexus forums, so needs to be beer and coffee resistant

I am not fussed as to whether it has a glass front or not, that HP mentioned in another thread looks pretty sweet, but no details have been posted yet as to where it is available from.

The LG L226WTQ -SF looks ok, but getting some mixed reviews too, particularly on greyscale images (and hexus is that kinda grey colour)


all help appreciated

the HP 2207 is avaliable at comet in store. Go take a look

£229 in there rather than the £189 mentioned, i shoulda stated that might well pop down for a look at it though, im in town on Saturday

I don't mean buy it there lol just see if you like it.

LG L226WTQ FTW! Search the forums, I've commented on it numerous times.

Im looking for similar, except i'd prefer black and it needs to be HDCP compliant (fussy, eh?)

The HP is the best i've seen but i can't seem to find it below £219. Apparently Costco have it at £180, not sure if this is with or without VAT though and my nearest store is an hour away...

Im thinking about getting a new screen too, what is the samsung 223bw like??

Also im worried about TN pannels being 6bit and all that, should i be?

And im looking for a vesa compatable one so i can mount it on the wall next to my 19" - they are a similar height and vertical res right??

Thanks
