LCD monitors vs LED monitors

Most of LED baclit monitors use TN panels. which is not great when compared to IPS panels. So, if there is some thing like LED backlit with IPS panel(I really don't know if there are any such) go for it. Else.. ditch LED.. go for good old CCFL. :p

Especially don't go for TN panels. They've terrible viewing angle problems. Especially if you are thinking of a HTPC setup or a environment where you'll be sitting far from the monitor. Sitting on a computer chair will not make much of a difference though. It is really a pain in the hass when you are sitting far.

Interesting information :) So which model would you recommend for 20" LCD ?

It's a bit hard to find IPS monitors in 20" department. Go for 22".

Dell 2209WA, should be your best bet.
