What about LED backlighting vs. fluorescent? Fluorescent can and will
change with time and eventually burn out. LED should stay constant and

The two 22 LCDs I've worked with the most are the two that I'd recommend:
Samsung SyncMaster 226bw
ViewSonic VX2245wm
My favorite LCD vendors are Samsung and ViewSonic. I highly recommend both
of them.

My Samsung SyncMaster 225 cost about $375 over two years ago from Newegg.
The successors which are better cost at least $100 less these days.

comparison.
Doesn't Samsung still make most of Apple's monitors? Didn't Apple
