I currently have a very nice BenQ FP241W(Z). I was hoping to get another matched monitor to stand side-by-side with it. However, BenQ has cleverly stopped making this particular model and indeed any monitors in the 16:10 aspect ratio (rage-face here). I then proceeded to scour my favourite computer-hardware sites, several sites that I wouldn't consider favourites, several sites I would rather not deal with ever, and then finally eBay. Nobody sells this monitor.
So my question is: does anyone know of any place I could buy another such monitor? I'd be willing to pay good money.
Alternately, has anyone found a decent review of 24"-30" monitors? I've been looking and couldn't find any (maybe I'm just blind). I don't need any 3D technology or other nonsense, just a large, bright, high-quality monitor; preferably with a tall stand. |

Are you _sure_ you want 16:10 and not 16:9?
I've got Benq E2400HD and it's pretty awesome. It's used exclusively for movie watching and Xbox playing. |

I use my screen for playing videogames, watching movies, writing code, ... pretty well everything you can do with a monitor. I really don't want to lose the vertical height, and ideally I'd be able to span the monitors, so 1920x1200 is preferable.
I haven't been impressed when dealing with BenQ in the past. The monitor I have is great, but their support is weak and the product lineup is abysmal: 7 slightly different but largely identical monitors, none of which do what I want. |
