Have a 21.5" iMac. I'm in my 14 day return period, but don't really want a 27", as I'm just not a fan of the massive size(and heat!).
Thus, I'm thinking of picking up an external monitor.
I really like the Dell P2211H or the U2211H just based on the fact that they have all of the things I'm looking for.
I'm a bit OCD and need the monitors to be absolutely level, thus, a stand or a book will not provide the level of exact adjustment I'll need to be satisfied with the two sitting side by side. The Dell monitors posted above aren't covered in gaudy "piano finish" shiny black plastic, and are in general, decent(albeit plain) looking monitors.
I know HP used to have a line that was similar in design aspects(silver "foot" like base, shiny black bezel) as the iMac, but I don't seem to see it on their website anymore.
Are there any glossy options? It seems Apple is one of the few(only?) display manufacturers offering glossy displays standard.
That being said, I'm looking for alternative options that offer the 3 qualities listed above. Any other ideas? Just want to make sure I have all my options covered, so I can scour the used market before buying new.

- Approximate size of the iMac screen
- 1920x1080 resolution
- Height adjustment(the hardest thing to find)
