I have been buying strictly Dell for over 5 years. The Ultrasharp line is rock solid, high quality and great picture. I don't know of a single replacement I have ever had to do for an Ultrasharp. Some of their lower lines E series, Planar, BenQ, ACER (Big time) I have had to do lots of replacements, DOA's, bad pixels, etc. Once I get a customer to standardize on the Ultrasharp they never consider another one.

They're now ordering the wide 22-inch units, I think those are ultrasharp as you mention. The reliability and standardization on an enterprise basis makes it a no-brainer for me, I'd stick with Dell.

We've been VERY pleased with the Dell UltraSharp line for a long time. While I know that Dell just has another manufacturer re-brand/re-package their panels in a Dell enclosure, I've yet to find a monitor that compares for the price (when matching the specs, line by line). We tried Acer a few years back and were burned by frequent failures. We recently bought some Planar units, and the clarity isn't as good, and some of them have bad pixels, which we've NEVER seen on the Dell units. Now that we're headed away from Dell toward Lenovo (via PC Connection), we're looking to possibly switching to a different monitor altogether. I'd like some recommendations as to where to turn, or if I should just stick with Dell for their monitors. If you buy significant quantities of monitors (10 at a time or more), please share your experiences, particularly if you've ever used any of the Dell Ultrasharp. Jonathan L.
