Two monitors, need to make one choice.

So, it's monitor time once again. Most likely going to get an Asus, and I've broken it down to one of these two monitors.

VN246H-P

VS247H-P

Both are $179.99 on Tiger Direct. VS247H-P retails for more but has a $30.00 instant rebate.

Which would you get and why?

The VN247H-P is the newer design with better specs. I had the same choice in ASUS 27" monitors and opted for the newer model and love the monitor. Get the newer model: it is thinner, lighter and a newer design.

BTW the model is VN247H-P not VN246H-P.
