    You're going to struggle finding a 22" screen for under £100 but there are some for around the £120 mark.

    Yeah, two are the same and seems to be cheaper in dabs, the acer seems good reviews but like you says its in white.

    I'd probuably go with the black ones unless its a big mistake just because of the colour.

    buying a monitor on a budget is a little bit of a mistake, you got to think just how long you are sat behind the screen. I guess a casual user like every evening can get away with a cheap screen. I spend almost my whole day at a screen and i had no option but to grab something decent.

    i dont understand people who set a budget, if you find something to your requirements and its over budget just wait until your next pay cheque and save up for it, dont expect 2nd best.

    I recently bought one of these. It's only 20", but the quality is decent for TN Film, it's a really good build quality (no stand wobble or anything), and it comes in just under £100 without shipping. For the money, highly recommended.

    If you feel like stretching out a bit more for a 22", I've been using these at uni for a couple of months now, and they're really excellent. Not quite as good build quality, but the picture is pretty good.

    p.s. Haven't read the whole thread, so forgive me if someone's posted the same screens. :p

    I bought one of the dgm 22's for my other half for christmas and it really is very good for the money. The panel is better than my year old fujitsu which cost more than double the price. The stand seems secure and sturdy and the case finish is good. All in all i'd say it's an awesome screen for the money.
