Hello all, I'm trying to decide wether or not to get a Gateway LCD or a BenQ LCD. Does anyone have either model? If so could you give me an opinion? I heard the BenQ is higher quality, but lacks 1:1 mode. Yet, apparently they are having a firmware fix come out sooner than later to fix that up nicely. The Gateway is ~$700 and the BenQ is ~$800. Can anyone help me out please?
Got a tip for us?

I just got the 22 gateway, and love it. Does the benq have all the same connections? I can play my 360 in 1080i on my gateway.
Yeah and it supports full 1080p with HDCP, the only difference is it doesn't have an HDMI port...but can't I always get a DVI->HDMI adapter...or will I lose alot of quality?
How does the 360 look on your Gateway? Nice and crisp colors? Any backlight bleeding or anything of the sort?

HDMI is basically DVI with audio connectors and a ridiculous price tag - you won't get any loss of quality

Sweet...thats really making this a difficult decision. Has anyone seen both of these monitors and can say which one is better? Anyone own either?
I found the 24" gateway a compelling buy, though the plastic casing was a turn-off. The 90 degree auto rotate might be useful for surfing the forums
