never buy analog only lcd, for lcd monitors analog is always a compromise whatsoever. DVI is must........

i currently have 3 lcd's from dell, 2 22" E228WFP's & a 19" SE198WFP & 1 from samsung, 19" samsung 940BW

for dell service u don't have to go anywhere, dell would come to u & simply replace ur lcd within 2 days.note that dell provides "advance exchange warranty" which is quite different from other crappy warranties..

IMO get a dell 19" SE198WFP & u would be happy with it

my friend just got lg 19" wide screen with DVI for 9700 to be exact(including taxes). I dont remember the model no but it had 5ms response time, res of 1440*900 and contrast ratio was 5000:1(not sure abt this, maybe 2000:1).

in big cities rma takes less than 48hrs mostly..in towns u may expect 72-96hrs
even considering 5 day wait in towns is worth as u save a lot of time & money which u might have spent in going to a big city having service center ..
plus dell rma people come with replacement in hand whereas in service center nobody gives u replacement same day, usually it takes a month or so

@vivekbabbudelhi
which is better according to u?
198WFP or 940BW?
And 940BW or the new 940 NW?

940BW is simply better than SE198WFP for factory color calibration.

940BW has original samsung TN film which are among the best in the business..
nowadays to have competitiveness in prices most manufacturers use lower quality cheppo TN films from chinese OEM manufacturers.Samsung 22" 226BW is an example of this.

i would not recommend an analog panel to even my worst enemy.:-D

No pain....No gain
Samsung 940BW is no more available and has been replaced by 940NW (no DVI). Better get Dell,Benq or even LG.
But if you can find 940BW then make sure you buy it. You may get it for 9-10k.

hey, Asus monitors were dominating the reviews of most mags a few months back....what bout that?
Asus 19" wide even outperformed 940BW in chip review nd when i enquired, it was for 11k four months back.
Its cons were larger edge, low volume speakers etc.

Hello, recently (yesterday) DELL has quoted me 9731/- for SE198WFP including all payables. I am form Kolkata. I know, at this price this will be an excellent buy, but they asks me to have road permit form the local sales tax dept. What is this about? How to get it and what are the expenses? Anyone having idea, please help.

BTW I am a web designer, so is this display good for designing purposes? I mean regarding sharpness and color accuracy? If not suggest me a display within 11K (CRT or LCD). I have XFX 8600GT GDDR3 (256 MB), so I wish my would be monitor gets the best out of it. Thanks in advance.
