I need some help and advise.

Question for you my fellow Xbox members:


Would you rather have a 20" HP HD monitor with 1 yr warranty for $150.00

http://microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0307131

OR

A 19" Acer LCD monitor with 3 yr warranty for $100.00

http://microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0294221


I am stuck on warranty. I really like the HP cause of the great graphics, but it only has a 1 year warranty.

Argh, I wish you let me know this sooner Confused

I actually ended up getting the Acer. When I was at the store I compared both side by side. There is no question the HP monitor was crisp and vibrant with color. If you were a graphic designer, this is the one to go with. Unfortunately, I went with the less expensive monitor ($50 less) with the better warranty.

Reasons:
- less expensive
- longer warranty
- screen is not gloss (my screen faces the window aka sun)

I am alright with the Acer, but I sure wouldn't mind the Samsung!!

Thanks
