Dell 2005FPW 20.1inch Widescreen LCD - [hardware]

The Tech Lounge posted a review on the Dell 2005FPW 20.1" Widescreen LCD:
Overall, the monitor was well suited for watching DVDs, so long as you sit far enough back to not pick out the little imperfections. Besides, didn't your mother tell you not to sit so close to the screen? The only odd thing I experienced in terms of picture quality was the vertical scrolling lines on the left side of the monitor that I was never able to isolate.

For the games I play, which aren't fast moving games, I have had zero problems with the monitor. Sometimes the game needs to be tweaked to support the specific resolution of the LCD, but that's about as far as the difficulty goes.

For general usage such as browsing the internet and using office programs, this remains a great choice. Microsoft's ClearType (available in Windows XP) makes text more readable and easier on the eyes by utilizing subpixel rendering. While I can remember the days of getting headaches from staring at my LG 995 19" CRT all day writing reports for school, I can stare at my Dell 2005FPW all day with no eye strain.
In related news, TrustedReviews take a look at the ViewSonic VX2025wm 20.1in LCD:
Furthermore, there was little evidence of motion smearing in games and movies thanks to a decent response time of 8ms grey-to-grey; (16ms, white-to-black-to-white). Colour accuracy also looked good in my test images, with natural looking skin tones and no untoward colour casts. Although the stated 176 degrees in both planes is arguable, the viewing angles were wide, with only a slight colour shift when viewing the screen from the extremities.

With some commendable image quality results, there was one factor that did disappoint – backlight bleeding. Display a black or a very dark screen on the VX2025wm and you'll notice light emanating from all four corners. It occurs when light from the cold cathode tubes can actually be seen, allegedly a result of unequal pressure sealing of the LCD panel. In a brightly lit environment you won't notice it, but if you're playing dark games or watching dark movies in a dimmed room it certainly becomes noticeable.
