Brands? umm lets see, sometimes i go for name brands but it depends what im getting, as for monitors I have a samsung and Westinghouse both are good, it just depends what you needit for. Gaming? or surfing online and watching dvds?

Only ok brands within that range are samsung, acer. I dont know about Hanns and the others.

i don't do any gaming now, but i may in the future. my biggest reason for wanting a flat panel is space. i use my computer desk to do homework and a flat panel gives me a lot more room to work with.

just put the magnet of a sub towards your comp monitor the you''l get a cooll effect. Then you'll have a exclusively colored monitor.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

If you are a member of Sams Club, or know someone who is, if you have one in your area, I just picked up a 19" widescreen Samsung for $199. Best deal I could find.

I'd go with samsung or acer. Just read some reviews on websites or better yet head down to a BB or CC and look at them yourself then you can compare prices and then buy the better deal either online or retail.

Sony's are great, expensive though.

I saw one online for $215. I'll try to locate it.

And before anyone says it, you're not just buying the name!

This is the same one that I got. If you have it shipped to you it'll be roughly $225, a little over budget, but still not too bad of a price on a really good monitor. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7894102&type=product&productCategoryId=cat01011&id=1149205183966
