Hi,
I'm about to buy an LCD monitor, and I hesitate between
A Viewsonic http://www.viewsonic.com/products/desktopdisplays/lcddisplays/xseries/vx924/
and a Sony http://www.sonystyle.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/eCS/Store/en/-/USD/SY_DisplayProductInformation-Start?ProductSKU=SDMHS95P%2fS&Dept=computers&CategoryName=cpu_Displays_FlatPanelLCDs_18%22
I don't know much on monitors, so I'd like your help please.
