Has anyone ever had, used, seen a Acer LCD Monitor?

I was looking at getting this one: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1901463&Tab=0&NoMapp=0

apparently 4 people from tiger have....5 stars on the 4 reviews.

Personally I have never used or purchased an Acer anything.

My experiences with Acer have been good. My first laptop was an Texas Intruments, which was in bed with Acer somehow... If I had the charger still, I'm sure it'd fire up.

Hmmm I also found this: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7824358&productCategoryId=cat01013&type=product&id=1142295055252

Slightly lower contrast (600:1 vs 700:1 on acer), however I can pick it up locally and verify no dead pixels prior to taking delivery.

I doubt the contrast value would even matter at that level... And pickup is nice! I'd choose the reputation of Samsung anyway.
