i have samsung 213T and i absolutely love the portrait feature, but that suits the type of work i do.
speakers built in tend to be pretty crappy, and if you listen to music youll probably use better ones or headphones esp if its for work
usb ports are nice, check if its USB hiSpeed or fullSpeed though
dot pitches and contrast ratio are different though, so you might want to consider that too.
according to this, the 1901 has built in speakers too... might be wrong though, it looks like its an option

I couldnt find who made that dell, maybe samsung or sanyo, i know sony did make a of their stuff, but it just doesn't feel like a sony.
