21" is a lot bigger than 19", but I'm sure all the girls say that.



Got the Gateway tilting 21" monitor, myself. I'd never go back. I run it
in vertical except when watching a movie or digital TV on my new Hauppauge
DTV USB plug. Even then, sometime I run it vertically with what I'm doing
under the TV picture way at the top, vertically.

Is that monitor 1000:1 or more contrast ratio?

This is what the Samsung site sez:

The Samsung SyncMaster™ 214T is a 21.3-inch TFT-PVA monitor delivering
an ultra fast response time of 8ms (G to G), 900:1 contrast ratio,
0.270mm pixel pitch, 1600 x 1200 maximum resolution, a scanning
frequency of 30-81 kHz horizontal and 56-75 Hz vertical, and
horizontal/vertical viewing angle of 178°/178°. It features MagicColor
Pro™, MagicTune™, MagicBright™, MagicRotation™ with auto pivot
technology and has a four-way adjustable stand.

Another one to check out is the LG brand sold at Best Buy. They *claim* a
2000:1 ratio, same as my DLP projector claims. 1st monitor that breaks
around here (4 chances) and I'm gonna try one. This month's "silly purchase"
was a Roomba off Woot.
