Re: OT-ish large quantity LCD monitor recommendation

[Kevin Lundy]

We have about 1500 Ultrasharps.  I think we have had about 20 need
replacement, so just a tad over 1%.  I believe most of them were power
supplies.

RE: OT-ish large quantity LCD monitor recommendation

[greg.sweers]

I have been buying strictly Dell for over 5 years.  The Ultrasharp line
is rock solid, high quality and great picture.  I don't know of a single
replacement I have ever had to do for an Ultrasharp.  Some of their
lower lines E series, Planar, BenQ, ACER (Big time) I have had to do
lots of replacements, DOA's, bad pixels, etc.  Once I get a customer to
standardize on the Ultrasharp they never consider another one.

The shop I work for parttime is strictly a Dell shop, and they just
never have any problems with their Dell units.  They're now ordering the
wide 22-inch units, I think those are ultrasharp as you
mention.  The reliability and standardization on an enterprise basis
makes it a no-brainer for me, I'd stick with Dell.

I'd like some recommendations as to where to turn, or if I should just
stick with Dell for their monitors. If you buy significant quantities of
monitors (10 at a time or more), please share your experiences,
particularly if you've ever used any of the Dell Ultrasharp.

OT-ish large quantity LCD monitor recommendation

[Raper, Jonathan - Eagle]

We've been a Dell Desktop shop for years. We've been VERY pleased with the Dell 
UltraSharp line for a long time. While I know that Dell just has another 
manufacturer re-brand/re-package their panels in a Dell enclosure, I've yet to 
find a monitor that compares for the price (when matching the specs, line by 
line). We tried Acer a few years back and were burned by frequent failures. We 
recently bought some Planar units, and the clarity isn't as good, and some of 
them have bad pixels, which we've NEVER seen on the Dell units. Now that we're 
headed away from Dell toward Lenovo (via PC Connection), we're looking to 
possibly switching to a different monitor altogether.

I'd like some recommendations as to where to turn, or if I should just stick
