Well, budget dictates your choice. So you better let us know your budget first.

For those budget conscious ppl, best bang for buck is still a 22" which doubles as a PC monitor.

Is there even a 32" 1080p?

HHmm.. as far as i can remember, you wont be able to see the difference between 1080p and 1080i if your screen is 37" or below. That is because the screen is too small tongue.gif

If you are getting 32", i dont think you should waste it on 1080p or 100mhz...

A good 32" 1080i LCD is approx 2k only. Enter a shop, close your eyes and point tongue.gif

P/S If you do not know this, many manufacturers have similar lcds from same manufacturer, just different casing. smile.gif smile.gif

Well, if you plan to upgrade to LCD TV in future like me, just get either 19 or 22. There's no point going to the high-end 24" if you plan to replace in 2 or 3 years. I'm telling you that playing on LCD TV is much much more satisfying that using monitor. Colors and contrast are a better than the monitor.

Maybe 'cause I'm using 22"...
