What do you folks think of this monitor?

Looks like a heck of a deal after MIR. Also a good time to take advantage of that 20% off Paypal purchases :) The monitor will be used for basic office tasks - no gaming or anything of the sort.
Suggestions of other monitors of the same size and general price range would be welcomed too!
TIA :)

I've heard good things about Samsung monitors, so it looks like a good deal.

So have I... but need to find one that's height adjustable. I'm sure Samsung has something similiar with that.

Good luck finding a budget monitor with an adjustable stand.

This monitor is a bit more expensive, but it has height adjustments.

If you don't want to deal with the rebate hassle, get one of these Hanns G units instead. Comparable specs and even one with pivot and height adjustment for $5 more.

Well, just so you know so far I have mingle w/ 3 different Samsung LCD panels all 216bw model and so far they have all have at least 1 to 2 stuck pixels. My third one also experiencing bleeding pixel.
I just bought 2 Hanns-G monitors for Xmas gifts, both are perfect, no bad pixels. I also bought an Envision for myself and it has one dark pixel that's hardly noticeable.
I just don't see the need for paying a premium for the Samsung (and other higher end) names. There aren't very many panel manufacturers and the no name brands all use panels from the majors. All I do is try to research warranties and customer experiences with support.
