Part of the plan when I picked up my MBP was to buy a display as well. So I was planning on putting a little money away and either getting an ACD or 2408WFP. In the meantime the realization of other priorities I could use the extra money for and the lack of need for perfect color reproduction, etc has caused me to question the need for such a display.
That said, I picked up a 22'' samsung from costco for super cheap to try out and make a decision about needing more than a TN panel. The TN certainly has all the issues people describe, but none of them have affected usability. The real issues I've had are the size and resolution. The display will be returned to costco this weekend.
I've been shopping the last few weeks and am having a hard time finding an appropriate display. I want:
1. 23 or 24 inches
2. 1920x1200. This is key. I really don't like working with the 16x9 ratio. It's as bad as I thought it would be.
The issue is that I want something in a lower price range, so likely a TN panel, but with the resolution mentioned above.
Does such a thing exist anymore??
