A couple of years ago I was given a 24inch CRT monitor when one of my friends upgraded to the forerunner of the 2407. A 24inch crt is quiet a big beast, totally dominated my desk, but it did true high definition (1080p) 1920x1080 which meant having a huge desktop. Once you have had that much desktop real estate you cant really go back. I decided if I was going down to buy a tft it had to be capable of this.

Widescreen films are displayed well and black borders are of sufficiently deep-blacks not to be obtrusive. The screen is big enough to be watched from ~1.5m away, any further and you will lose out in detailed epic views such as those in Lord of the Rings and the like. For this kind of use the Dell 2405FPW is better suited, simply for size advantage. ...

Overall I'm glad I spent the extra money. Was plug and play, up and running in 5 mins. Large desktop for multi tasking having several programs running spread out over the screen. Massive resolution for gaming with amazing graphics. Large screen combine with a TV card replaced my TV. ...
