In the market for a new monitor - work is picking up the tab, so I have pretty much a free choice. This is going to be used mostly with my Mac, so DVI input would be preferred. I would prefer a widescreen 19" + that's about it really.

I could possibly get one of the lovely Apple displays, but they are expensive and I'm not sure if they're that much better. I've seem some nice Samsung's for around £300 ish

Main use will be work related.

Any recommendations?

Pick up this months PCPro mag, they have done a full testing on 20-24" LCD screens.

Their top pick was the 22" Dell E228WFP at £304. And their Favourite alternative is the 20" Philips Brilliance 200WP7ES at £286.

I got an HP w19 from PC World of all places. Really nice - PITA to switch between DVI and VGA input through the menu instead of a dedicated button, but for 150 I couldn't go wrong. I initially went in there for a black floppy drive

I got my 19" widescreen Belinea monitor from ebuyer when it was just £102 and its brill

No DVI for you though, but at the current price of ~£120 is still good value imho.

Go with the 22" dell above. I have the 20" 2007WFP and its truely the best monitor I have used.

22" uses the same resolution (1680 x 1050) but it will be much easier on your eyes espicially if its mainly for office use.

Another vote here for the Dell 20" 2007WFP, very quick to swap between DVI and Analog.

I love my 22" widescreen from Asus - its a corker.

I just bought a 20'' Samsung SM205BW which is HD ready and also comes with a 3 year warranty for £178 excluding VAT. It seems good value for money having looked at the alternatives.
