Monitors.

[memnus]

So, acoording to NewEgg, there is no such thing as a monitor with both DVI and video (any kind) input for a reasonable price. Am I missing something, or is my definiton of reasonable price (~$250) just too low?

EDIT: This is my current target, and I kinda want a new screen soon.

Just in case anyone is overlooking them, Dell seems to have nice monitors. The E228WFP is 22", widescreen, and has DVI and VGA for under $300. To get component in you need to go to the UltraSharp line and up to 24" (the 2407WFP) for almost $700. The other four input options are available at 20".

I got the 2007WFP during one of their sales/price cuts/whatever and am liking it. The linked monitor at newegg does look pretty sweet, though, and with component *and* sound!? (Sound is available but costs extra on the Dells.)

I ended up ordering the 20" Dell UltraSharp, actually, after Richard pointed me at it. I'd seen a bunch of those around and had been racking my brain for what the brand was.

I have two monitors with built-in speakers, and even being half-deaf can tell how terrible they both sound. I've got a more-than-decent sound system attached to my computer at the moment anyway, so am not too concerned on that front.
