I have a Samsung Syncmaster 930 BF, and it is fantastic.  It looks good
plus it is good for games (4ms).  The newer model is 2ms and is $150
cheaper at Memory Express (my how 6 months can change a price point).  I
am thinking of getting it as a second monitor, and I don't know of a
higher compliment than return business and a recommendation.

Cheers
