What do you guys think of it? I have been able to find very littole info on this beast and just wondering if you folks can tell me if it looks any cop, seeing as this will be my first LCD puchase, and i'm finally saying goodbye to my leviathan 22" Compaq P1220 CRT.

Rich. :)

well, seeing as it's replacing the already well-regarded 213T i'd say it's bound to be a winner. they're updating the panels in many of their high end stuff, like the 173P and 193P 'plus' versions with faster displays. I'm using the 193Pv1 and it's still fine for me, so the new stuff will be even better, you'd expect. it won't be cheap though.
