Megavision & Benq LCD monitors - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Are these crap? By my understanding, there's really only a few Manufacturers of the actual panels, and if you find units with identical specs, chances are they use the same panel.

Specifically, I'm interested in this one, the Benq, and this one, the Megavision.

The Megavision lists the wrong specs, even links to the wrong manual at the bottom. The specs I've seen in print (real print) are nearly identical, just with a 20ms response time, not a 25.

Any opinions? I'm giving serious consideration to getting a dual-17" LCD setup going.

Also, has anyone seen good prices for the Hyundai Q17a? Tom's Hardware lists them as $379, but I've been unable to find them for less than $700.

My employer sells both Acer and BenQ flats. I've heard that BenQ's warranty terms are among the best in the industry. I've seen a previous model, the 765, and thought it was pretty decent. I'd presume the newer 767 to be at least as good.

I have an Acer AL922 at home myself. I loooooooove the thing.
