A good place to get reviews on that kinda stuff is www.cnet.com they're pretty good with reviews and are fairly detailed. Hope this helps

$190 + shipping isn't bad, but I would see if it has any reviews on Cnet.

Just a little too late for the Acer 19" LCD with the printer combo for $139 after the $10 instant and $70 erebate from CompUSA.

We got a matching pair of them last Friday.

We use the regular 19's at work. We bought like 20 of them and as far as I know, they are in pretty good condition. Haven't seen any dead pixels so far.

From what I've seen a lot of these off brand LCDs do just as well as the name brands like Samsung, Viewsonic, etc. I think a lot of the off brands might even use the same panels as some of the name brand LCDs. I personally have 2 Dell LCDs and I think they use the same panels as LG or Samsung.
