This AM drove to Alexandria and visited Allans Music ( waste of time)
and had intended to visit Harris Technology (gone) which used to be
next door.
On way home I spied a small computer shop (also in Alexandria) which
happened to have a BenQ E2400WD in stock, unopened. Pric quoted was
$345, $85 and $200 cheaper than local shops, so I took it on the spot.
Came home and plugged it in to my KVM switch via VGA and both PCs (
Kubuntu 8.10 and Xbuntu 7.10) found it immediately at the correct
resolution of 1920 x 1200 - plus he Monitor is 16:9 and 1080p.
I'm a happy camper, especially at that price.
Thanks to all who replied to my original post.

Nice work. I bought a pair of Benq E2400WDs and am very happy with mine
(the Mrs got the other one).
Actually its a 16:10 ratio.
Happy viewing.
