So I have a 13" MacBook Pro, and it is a mid 2009 model. I am going to upgrade it to 8GB of RAM, and I would like to buy an external monitor before I go to college next year. I do not know much about different monitors, but I have been looking at Best Buy for a while. My budget is around $150, I will definitely not go over $200.

I have found two I am interested in

23" LED Acer

20" LED Acer
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Acer+-+...itor/1804069.p?id=1218293488748&skuId=1804069

I was just curious if anyone had used these monitors, of if there was any other ones out there you would suggest. Also I wondered if the screen would distort the image at all from my Mac, and any tips and tricks would be great!
 
I don't know if you get any email from Newegg but I did see a 24 Asus Ve248Q LED backlight with Speakers for 214.99 and they had a coupon for 25 off it. Free shipping. It is a unique code according to the email from Newegg or I would throw it your way.

I don't know anything about the monitor. Just saw it in my email a few minutes ago!
