Hmmm, I did a bunch of searches and couldn't find any threads worth of note.

In a act of utter stupidity, I cracked the glass on my old Samsung 215TW which they no longer make.

Thanks for the heads-up

I have a 24" Acer that is about 4 years old, a 22" HP that is a year old, and two Scepters- a 20" and 22" which are 6 and 2 years old respectively. I would have to not recommend the Scepters but they are cheaper models. The Acer and HP are top grade!

EDIT: It's an acer and has been working great.

 

24" full 1080p monitor is a great size and the price has really come down since a year ago when i bought mine. it's the sizes above 24" that are still expensive as heck.
