Are you looking for a computer monitor or HDTV? I'm not sure about availabilty in Korea, but the Dell 2407wfp is a really good compuet monitor with a resolution of 1920x1200 and a whole load of inputs. It is a 24" widescreen. It is the slightly older version of the 2408wfp from Dell, but I hear that the 2407 has a lower input lag so it may work better for gaming than the 2408. It can also be a bit cheaper if you can find it (and don't go for the 2407wfp-hc "high color" version, which also increases input lag, I hear, but displays a higher range of color gamut).

There are cheaper monitors that might be better for gaming (look for TN panel monitors) but they have poorer color accuracy and viewing angles. They tend to have faster input responses and gray-gray response times as well.

I bought this BenQ T2200. Full HD 16:9.

It's a great monitor. If I was in the market for a new monitor, though, I would get at least a 24 inch, if I was going to get one in wide-screen format.

"1,920x1,080"
Almost anything made in the last few years is "HD" unless you're going out of your way to buy something that isn't.

HD needs to be updated to reflect ONLY 1080....720 ain't HD, IMO.
