    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Hi everyone,
going a little bonkers here. finally did it, got a mac pro and final cut studio 2 yay!
now what I've spent the most time in trying to figure out, it's crazy-- is what brand of monitor/display to get for video editing? I have a 17" westinghouse and wanted my main screen to be 22". Also wanted to spend under $400. But I can't find real opinions and image quality ratings from people who use it for video.
NEC? Samsung? Dell? HP?
(by the way I thought I'd settled on a Dell but they are out of stock everywhere until August and I don't want to wait that long).

also what resolution and contrast ratio are you using?

Please help I'm going bananas!!
thanks in advance for your advice

Did you check ebay for the Dells, I remember they had new and used ones for very good prices.
