Hi everyone, I'll get straight to the point, my ole CRT is singign the swan's song and it's time to send him to greener pastures (fallout 3 reference intended).
Since I'm not a big fan of LCD displays or widescreen I know nothing about picking up a new monitor, but so far I've narrowed my search to a few options (I don't live in the US nor EU, so other options would be difficult to aquire), so this is what I've come across so far.
Option Number 1
This is the monitor I've been eyeing the more, it comes whit some neat features, like the ability to turn it in 90º to accomodate a document, USB ports in the panel, etc.
HP w2207h:

Option Number 2:
I don't know what to think about this, its a 15% cheaper than the HP and has a higer resolution, the response time is listed as 5ms (2ms GTG) just like the HP, but the brand kinda makes me eerie, also this monitor would mean changing the VGA, (wich will happen in around 6 month minimum)

Options 3
This one is a 3% more expensive than the HP, your regular 1680*1050 Viewsonic
Samsung Va2216w (PDF warning)

Option 4:
And theres also a 19" viewsonic that costs the same as Option 3 (which puzzles me too)
Samsung VX1962wmp:

Well, that would be it, money is not an issue, all the options are inside budget.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks and bye!
