From: Stefan on 1 Oct 2009 09:17 I didn't find an appropriate monitor group, so I try it here. My trusty Sony Flat Trinitron behemont is getting old and I'm thinking of replaciing it with something more "modern". More precisely I want a 22" TFT monitor. (No, I don't want a bigger one.) And it must be matte. The Dell Ultrasharp 2209WA seems to be a real bargain. But is it really usable for professional work? How does it compare to those much more expensive Eizos, Miros etc.? Being a freelancer, money *does* matter.

The viewing area of a 22 inch CRT is no more than 20.5 inches. So If you don't want to go bigger then a 20 inch TFT is what you want. Also its cheaper than a 22 inch. Have a look a the NEC Spectraview range or Eizos. I personally don't rate Dell at all but, that's my opinion.At the end of the day you get what you pay for.

I would be interested in somebody who has seen one in real life and can compare it to those top notch monitors.

Don't rely on what other people say. Go find a dealer that has the Dell and other Monitors that you my be interested in and compare them yourself.
