Dan,<br>I LOVE my 22¨ Samsung SyncMaster 226BW!! I picked it up a couple months back from Fry´s &, after rebates, I ended up paying around $250. We´re all different when it comes to buying tech. For me, I usually don´t get the ¨highest end¨ item & prefer to purchase the next one down the line for a much cheaper price. I looked @ the 24¨s but the price gap between 22 & 24 (like $250+!) was too large for me to go the 24 route.<br>
<br>I always used 17¨ & 19¨ monitors but this was my 1st LCD. It´s a HUGE difference from 19¨ to 22¨! I´d consider the 22¨ & put the savings in your gas tanks. ;)<br><br>hope that helps,<br>--miguel<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

Whew. Finally picked case and power supply; I'm going to<br>
get an "80 plus" efficiency-rated power supply this time.<br>
And at somebody's recommendation, I'm going with a 24"<br>
monitor (since widescreen 22" said to not feel any bigger than normal 19").<br>
This all pushed the price up to $900, sigh.<br>

</div>I'm still thinking of going with the e7200, though I was briefly<br>
tempted by a Dell deal on a Q6600.<br>
