Tech Support Forum - View Single Post - Monitor opinions!! LCD Westinghouse/Samsung

Hey guys,

I have a Samsung 175v LCD monitor that I have been using for a year. #1 thing that makes me mad about it is that it has a poor viewing angle, so I can't watch TV from my bed. #2, it has like 2 or 3 dead pixels which seems to be what these models are known for. It also seems kind of dark when I do photo viewing and editing.

Well, today I bought a Westinghouse 19 inch LCD monitor for $330 from Best Buy. What I liked about it, #1 GREAT viewing angle (170 degrees), and #2 19 INCHES!

Now, was this a good price to pay for a 19 inch? And does anyone hold a high opinion of Westinghouse? I think they just started making monitors, but it seems that they have been making LCD TVs for a while.

In other words, should I try selling my Samsung and keep the Westinghouse? Or should I take it back?

What do you think?

Thanks!
