Love my new ($280) Samsung BW 226BW (22" wide screen with contrast of 3000:1 and 2 ms speed and although I do not use Vista it is 100% VISTA compatible). Virtually free after getting the Best Buy Visa Card to buy the thing with, but that is another whole story. Oh yes it has a 3 year warranty -- most I have seen have only a 12 month one.
