We have an iiama ProLite E481s (not within your budget but if you can stretch to one well worth it for quality).

If you don't mind me asking, which one did you order?

Would you be good enough to give us a review of it (and of the service etc) when you've had it a week or so? I'm interested in a TFT myself.

Thanks.

Sure...
I ordered a 19" Digimate L-1918 for £154 plus vat http://www.aria.co.uk/ProductsList.a...22+tft+monitor

After a ton of searching for reviews etc, they seemed to come out as good vfm. Watch this space for a review :D

I'm surprised to see Aria charging £20 just for checking a TFT monitor has no dead pixels when it arrives! What's to stop the monitor developing a dead pixel 1 min/1 hour/1 day after turning it on?

If you get a Class 1 rated TFT you don't need to worry about dead pixels only price :)

I also saw a couple of good TFT's that may interest other people:

ACER 1951AS Gamers Line: 1280 x 1024, 19", 8ms, Contrast Ratio 700:1, Brightness 400 cd/m2, DVI and D-Sub, Price around £250

LG L1915S: 1280 x 1024, 19", 12ms, Contrast Ratio 500:1, Brightness 250 cd/m2, No DVI only D-Sub, Price around £190

Have had a couple of the Aria 17" ones for the kids PC's #
but wanted/needed something bigger for my older eyes

So I went for the 19" Samsung Syncmaster 913N (1280x1024) - got it from MicroDirect.co.uk (their site seems to be playing up tonight-is that a bad sign ?) £168+va t+del - total = £206 8ms, 700:1, 300cd, 3 year on-site

Had some experince of the screen at work, thought it was good from that,
so ordered, No dead pixels, everything I expected, luverly

I have ordered from them many times and only time I had a problem was the first order and then when I changed my bank details. They will try to call you to confirm the details, as they have had a few problems in the past. But normally I can order in the morning and have it by the next day.

Don't believe everything The Inquirer reports! Everyone isn't suddenly going to go out and buy new monitors just because of Vista, hell it's still about a year away from any type of realistic release.

If it's going to be a major hardware change to DRM and Protected Content hardware, I seriously doubt people will embrace it with open arms! I buy my hardware/software so I can control what I do with them, not to be dictated to or told how to use what I buy.

If Sheeple want to follow MS, be led by the nose and have restrictions imposed on them that's fine, let them, but when it gets to the point where they can't use their PC unless MS says it's OK then that's their look out!

Me, I'm staying well clear of Vista/Longhorn or whatever they want to call it until it's fully revealed and the implications understood!

Too much of a delay, and no real excuse. Most likely not in stock or something like that. Now i have to wait for my money to get into my bank so i can go shopping again lol.
