Lol...Dont worry, u always can mount it on the wall...

LCD Panel Technology Type and Characteristics
===============================
TN film (Twisted Nematic)
- low manufacturing/retail costs
- restrictive viewing angles
- fast pixel response times
- dead pixels display white. Stuck pixels display RGB colors
- lower contrast levels means blacks are not as dark as VA based panels
- lower color reproduction

IPS (In Plane Switching)
- improved viewing angles over TN
- very good color reproduction
- slower pixel response times than TN
- dead pixels display black
- lower contrast levels means blacks are not as dark as VA based panels

Super-IPS (S-IPS)
- same as IPS except ...
- likely best color reproduction of all TFT
- less expensive to produce than IPS
- improved pixel response

VA (Vertical Alignment) Technologies
========================
MVA (Multidomain Vertical Alignment)
- compromise between TN and IPS technologies
- superior color reproduction over TN but not as good as IPS
- very good viewing angles but less than IPS
- higher contrast than TN or S-IPS means very good blacks
- dead pixels are black
- slower pixel response than TN or IPS
- details can be lost when directly viewing dark areas

Premium-MVA (P-MVA)
- same as MVA except ...
- "overdrive" technology increases pixel response but still slower than TN
- may have slightly degraded color reproduction due to "overdrive" process

PVA (Patterned VA)
- same as MVA except ...
- larger viewing angles
- higher contrast levels means darkest blacks

Super-PVA (S-PVA)
- same as PVA except ...
- “Magic Speed” (the Samsung equivalent to Overdrive) improves pixel response
- slightly improved color reproduction
- slightly improved viewing angles


Purchasing Considerations
=================
TN Gamers
Considered a "gamers" panel due to it's fast pixel response times which reduces trailing images know as "ghosting". However, this advantage has been reduced by new technologies to accelerate pixel response times in other panel types. Colors and contrast tend to be weak and blacks are not truly dark. Viewing angles are significantly limited. However, monitors based on this technology tend to be inexpensive.

IPS / S-IPS Graphics Work or Web Browsing
Considered to have the best color reproduction of all panel types, these panels are well suited for graphics work or web browsing. Pixel response time is also good but slower than the TN "gamers" panel. Contast and blacks are also less dark than VA panels but viewing angles are excellent.

* Note : Most of the LCD TVs are fall into this category with a lower resolution.

MVA / P-MVA / PVA / S-PVA Compromise for All-Around Use
These panels are a compromise between the fast pixel response times of the TN panel and the excellent color reproduction of the IPS panels. Contrast and blacks are best of all the panel types. Viewing angles are similar but slightly inferior to IPS.

Hope these help. Thanks.

Thanks for those, I really learned a lot this morning.

Not worthy to repair dude, my suggestion, go for new one.
But depends on which part 'rosak'... if it's severe, then go for new one. If it's minor, ok lor to repair...

24" dell = S2409W? There's so many S2409W user here, u can read their review and opinion, and u can compare since u use 226BW.
Back to personal matters la, of coz I'll say Dell lo, since it's 24" bigger and cheaper.... Quality not that much difference.

2009WFP is TN but 2007FP is IPS

http://www1.ap.dell.com/content/products/c...bsd1&l=en&s=bsd

I wonder why this LCD is more expensive than S2409W?
I see that the brightness is 250 cd/m2; while S2409W is 300. Others almost the same? some more, it doesn't have HDMI..

Green eh? Why more expensive? Like this, not everyone can buy, then cannot go green la...

It is using LED as the backlighting compared to CCFL used in other LCD. LEDs Used lower power.

i think the 1,000,000 DC is probably why.

1000000:1 wow...must be good. i mean the dell lcd clearly beaten the new samsung. but is it true?

Added on February 27, 2009, 11:13 amsome LCD are meant to last according to hours. not days. let's say 50000 hours. if one day u use 8 hours. so one year u use 2920 hours. so the lcd can last for around 17.123 years aporximately. but sometimes u use more than 8 hours. example 12 hours but sometimes u use less than 8 hours. in the end depends on ur usage.

Added on February 27, 2009, 11:15 amthis is for the acer monitor. but some company rarely display the total hours for a lcd to last. some maybe 10000 hours or 5000 hours. lol. we might not know the actual lifespan of the lcd.

I asked Dell's guy, they said because of the 'environmental friendly', G2410 is more expensive... So much for that factor

One thing I don't get an answer for, why S2409W doesn't stated its Dynamic COntrast Ratio? Dell doesn't answer me either; saying, "I'll give feedback to the team"

because dynamic contrast is just a marketting gimmick, they can put whatever numbers they want and there is no real way to measure it. samsung especially likes to come up ridiculous numbers, i guess with this new dell monitor they want to send the message "See we can make up numbers too." to samsung.

LOL.... aite.... I got you...
1million:1...whatever

well , its just that when i close the LCD and 1 or 2 hours later i came back and on again .....it stuck there and keep refreshing ..i need open close a few times oni can get back the screen >.>. I hope its nothing serious zzz

Hmmm... Cable maybe? What connection r u using? VGA?Dvi?
Check the refresh rate, and restart the comp.

I am waiting for a non-TN 22"-24" FullHD LCD monitor.... being used to a MVA panel (VX2025wm), I dun think I can bear the problem of having a narrow viewing angle.

i will trade in my one month old N82 4 T240 if that is possible rugi 300 bucks ain't a big loss 4 me

sifus....i want to ask
my laptop is running on 1280 x 800 reso and i want duplicate my screen on my 2233sw with reso 1920 x 1080
the only settings i can find is extended monitor only
if i choose duplicate, it will follow my laptop reso with 1280 x 800 only
any idea ?
thanks

select ur 2233sw as ur primary display

Hello, I had a problem with my lcd, when I turned it on, the power led blinking, but there's no display, I'm sure of its my LCD problem as i tested my CPU on friend's LCD and it works, so what could probably be the problem? I'm using Samsung 932BW

try your LCD on your friends CPU
