The Dell 24" LCD has gotten really good reviews and they'll run it on sale for around $800 sometimes. That's what I'm planning on getting, it seems to be the best bang for the buck..

The Dell 30" has also had some good press. However, you may have to upgrade your video card to run it.

I was eyeing the Dells too. I think my video card could handle 30" I have an nvidia 6800 GT.

I run 2 Dell 21" widescreens as my main screens and 1 Samsung 19" above my midi keyboard. The Dell LCDs look soooo much better than any other LCD I've had, and with a coupon from Slickdeals.com I was able to pick up both of them for $420 each, and they retail for $700. I also have a Nvidia 6800 and it runs them perfectly. The Nview multi monitor software is great too. Can't go wrong with Dell.

P.S Dell monitos are made by LG Electronics, one of the best LCD screens manufacturers.

Yes; don't buy anything from Dell without a current coupon code. If you don't look, you probably padded their margin nicely.

Where can I find a Dell coupon code?

Also, try both home & small business. They tend to be different prices in the end (shipping). Don't worry if you're not a business; simply use your own name as the business name. Small biz tends to be cheaper on the biz stuff; home usually has the good deals on higher-end models aimed for "gamers".

Before we can suggest anything we need to know if you are you looking for the 'Hollywood Look' straight out of the box?
