Seems like a pretty good deal for new 1920x1200 monitor.

Wow, great price on an awesome monitor!  Wish I could have bought one of these instead of a new garbage disposal today.  :)

I have one of these for a recent gaming computer i built.

mine is a 20" though, but they are very nice.

the picture, color and brightness is good, aswell as the monitor stand is very nice and highly and easily adjustable.

Dell's U series monitors are all excellent.  I've got a 2001FP in my cab, a 2005FPW in storage, a 2311 on my PC, and a 2711 as a second on my Mac.  I'd buy any of their U series models sight unseen.

My greatest fear is that my 2001FP in my arcade cab fails.  It's a 20" narrow-screen IPS display with a VESA mount... a very rare beast these days, and you need a much larger monitor in wide-screen to get the same kind of display height.

I've got this one(which is an e-ips) and the u2410(ips).  Can't for the life of me get the colors to match well.  Even with a colorimeter I borrowed.  Different backlightings. 
Tempted to sell the u2410 so I can get another u2412, I'd take the hit on the cost, since I really don't see much difference between the two, other than the u2410 has a card reader on the side.
