22" LCD monitor

Currently I am thinking of replacing my existing 17" Philips LCD to a larger one.

I am not considering 19" LCD , coz a 19" 16:10 LCD is only a few percent larger and it will be running at 1440x900. No much gain, so it is out.

What about 20" LCD? oh well, 20" 16:10 is just one inch larger the former 19". But the resolution will be 1680x1050, i dont want to buy a magnifier for that. Again it's out.

What about 24" LCD? 24 inch is large enough, it is running at 1920x1200 which will be capable of displaying HD content, not only 720p/1080i but even 1080p. Sounds very nice but 24" costs a lot of money, a popular Dell 24" 2407 costs HKD5600 here...... I better invest this money on something else.

That means 30" is out neither. Dell 30" LCD costs ~HKD9999 here and Apple's 30" costs even more.

Here is my coming target, 22" LCD. 22" LCD's native resolution is the same of 20" which will be 1680x1050, i hope i wont need a magnifier for that. And the price is so attractive, Dell is selling a new 22" LCD for just HKD2688. And Viewsonic also provides you a good choice at HKD2690 now.

Here it is the Dell 22" E228WFP.
