Which is the best monitor in 20 inch series?
Will the 720p movies look bad in 20 inch monitor compared to 19 inch monitor ?

Yes, Samsung 2033SW is also good. U can go for it also.

And if u want to go for 20 inch then y not go for 21.5" LCD. U can go for Full HD LCD Samsung 2233SW for some 10.3 K. U can view full HD i.e. 1920 x 1080 resolution . Go for this one.

Its Samsung Dude, u need not to worry abt picture clarity. Dell & Samsung both r reputed names. U can go with any of them.

U can go for 2033 eyes closed.

They are all TN panels. Not much difference. A friend of mine bought samsung 2233sw which came only with a vga cable. On checking up with people, it only came with vga cable. Not sure if its the same case for 2033sw, but keep in mind if its not there then buy a dvi cable which retails for 250 bucks.

both have same resolution, 2033 is lil better in as its little bigger and being samsung u can buy locally.

Dell u need to order online, but both are equally priced. if you go for 20 inch model from Dell I mean.
