I just bought a referb'ed mac mini 2.0. Now i need a monitor. I have about $300.00 spend.

Any advice?

The two I'm looking at the most are the new Dell UltraSharp 2208WFP 22-inch
and the Samsung 226BW widescreen. The dell appears to be using the same panel as the Samsung. however, the only 3 reviews i can find on it are from the Dell web site. As such, i'm leaning toward the Samsung.

I really like my new dell 22". It's the one with the built in webcam (that works plug and play with ichat and photobooth, though I'm having problems with sound).

My roommate just got a Samsung 22" 220BW from Best Buy on Black Friday, for $190. Sharp display. Saved $130.

I have the Samsung 226BW and LOVE IT! It is by far the best monitor I've owned or worked with (and I've had some expensive ones). So far I haven't found one that beats it from contrast ratio or refresh rate. I don't think you'd be disappointed...
