Bob,
I have no experience with Samsung monitors, though I have heard them
recommended. I use a Dell UltraSharp 1907 FP 19" Flat Panel LCD Monitor
which I bought at a Dell sale price in 2006. You might check Dell's current
sales offerings. I had to turn the brightness way down from the way it was
shipped, but haven't touched the adjustments in over two years.
