I am going to buy two 24" monitors soon and I have nailed it to few but I'm having a hard time deciding which ones to get.

I would be using them mainly for programming and movie watching (I love HD content), I'm not a big gamer and only play games for few days every year.

I can get all those monitors for, so it's not the price I'm worried about but the quality.

Dell S2409W

Made in 2009
TN-Panel
1920 x 1080
16:9
Contrast Ratio: 1000:1
Brightness: 300 cd/m2
Response Time:5 ms
inputs: DVI, HDMI, VGA
Adjustments: Tilt


Dell 2407WFP

Made in 2007
PVA-Panel
1920x1200
16:10
Contrast Ratio: 1000:1
Brightness: 450 cd/m2
Response time: 6ms
Inputs: DVI, VGA, SVIDEO, Component, Composite
Adjustments: Tilt, Height, Swivel



NEC LCD24WMCX

Made in 2008
TN-Panel
1920 x 1200
16:10
Contrast Ratio: 1000:1
Brightness: 400 cd/m2
Response time: 5ms
Inputs: DVI, VGA, HDMI, COMPONENT
Adjustments: Tilt



The Dell 2407WFP obviously was/is really good priced at 1000$ When it came out, comparing the Dell S2409W price at 350$ when that came out... And the NEC at around 450$
But that was back in 2007 so I am wondering if the cheap new LCD's can match or even beat the quality of the old Dell?

All inputs welcome.
Thanks in advance.

If it was me, Dell S2409W
An opinion though, and if you love HD movies, definitely this one!

Don't listen to the specs. Go and see all the monitors in a store or something. I have a sony SDM-HS95P and the picture quality still beats a lot of lcds today (resolution and response time doesn't but oh well)(and this is from a monitor from 2005!)
