    I'm still waiting for the A01 revision of the Dell Ultrasharp U2410. Should be at retailers soon hopefully.

    Such a bargain, two of the bit-tech staff have already snagged them - myself and Hiren :)

    Even if I hate the random resolutions, this seems like a pretty decent screen (oh and great value for money), but why oh why is the stand made from the goddamn fingerprint plastic?!

    Hmmm.... I'm looking to get a monitor in this size range. I'm no monitor expert (quite the opposite), so what benefit does the u2410 provide over this to the uneducated consumer?

    Damn. £190 for that?

    So horribly tempting. Only thing stopping me is the fact that I have no desk space left as it is!

    Wow, that is a low price for what sounds like an awesome monitor. I'm happy with my year-old Samsung T220, but if I was in the market for an upgrade I would seriously consider something like this Dell... though I would prefer a standard 1080p just for the sake of convenience when it comes to gaming and other media. If they could make one with such a resolution, I'd almost be sold here and now.

    will games recognise the resolution? if not i wouldnt be interested in a horrible messed up resolution. you have to love the pixel pitch though. certainly a quirky product but i can see the benefits.

    Games recognise the resolution. I have a SyncMaster 2343NW which is the same screen size and resolution but it only has a VGA input. The screen is matt rather than glossy which I do prefer and I find the quality to be perfectly fine for the £120 I paid for it. For the money this seems like a bargain as it has a much better array of inputs than my screen as well as a much better stand. For me games recognise the resolution so I dont have any problems there I just need a more powerful rig as I specced my GPU to my old resolution.
