Dell 3008WFP
Comments:
With a crazy amount of inputs, 1080p over component and good rendering of 1080i, this screen has set itself up as a potential TV replacement, let alone a huge monitor. This one's the new king.
Review Verdict: With a crazy amount of inputs, 1080p over component and good rendering of 1080i, this monitor has set itself up as a potential TV replacement.

The 24in. Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP delivers across the board in performance, design and features. It's not only an excellent choice as an entertainment display, but is also great for everyday Windows tasks.

Dell's 2408WFP is the latest in the company's line of 24-inch panels, following on the heels of the much-beloved Dell 2407WFP (reviewed September 2006). Unfortunately for Dell, improving upon its predecessor isn't enough to push the 2408WFP above other te

Review Verdict: That said, the monitor's Multimedia preset did seem to accomplish wonders on our HD DVD test, making the detail in the dark bits of the movie match that of our current favorite 30-inch monitor, Gateway's XHD3000. But while this made us happy, the setting
