My $0.02. My old lab had the Samsung and an Acer. The Samsung was small and worked well in a dedicated graphics room. The Acer died just after the warrantee period.
I now have a 23in Zalman attached to my macbook pro. Outside of stereo viewing the text is alright, but not as clear as my Asus 27in monitor that does 1900x1200. The stereo viewing in PyMOL is fantastic and I think on par with the 3d Vision shutter system without the need for emitter compatibility and batteries in the glasses. Plus, if I need extra glasses, I just bring a set home after going to see a 3D movie at the theater. The real draw back to the Zalman is menu/text viewing in stereo. Then the resolution is poor and reading is impossible so memorize where the functions you use most are. The biggest drawback to all these monitors is the display size, which makes the new 27in consumer monitor by Acer, HN274H bmiiid, a monitor worth looking into, IMHO. Keep up the discussion.
