Best External Monitor?

[KazeKrazy]

Hi! I'm planning to buy a MacBook Pro 15" (as you see in my signature). I was just wondering what you guys this the best external monitor is...ASIDE from the Cinema Display which I can no where afford.

I'm looking at an HP 25" LED Monitor. Here's the specs.

Monitor type
25" ultra-slim LED monitor

1920x1080


Contrast Ratio (typical)
1,000:1 (typical) 3,000,000:1 (Dynamic)


Brightness (typical)
250 nits


Pixel pitch
0.288 mm


Response rate (typical)
5 ms


Sound
No


ENERGY STAR Qualified
ENERGY STAR qualifed and EPEAT Silver registered


Signal Input Connector

VGA
DVI-D (with HDCP)
HDMI (with HDCP)


Misc. Tilt
Yes (-5 to +25 degrees)


Dimensions
17.41 (h) x 23.82 (w) x 7.26 (d)

Is it any good? I'm unaware as to how to determine monitor specs.

Also, is anyone else get a Google Chrome thing that says "No Data Received". I'm on PC so it could just be the crappyness effecting Google Chrome's amazingness.

Go with an ultrasharp display from Dell. The u2311h offers the best bang for the buck.

Never really heard of it, looks alright, decent price. But I'm searching for 25". I'll bet AOC has it though 😛
