[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1518476, member: 56379"] Well at least you didn't rush your decision!;) I'm thinking the most difficult requirement to fill was the "pivotability" of the monitor. From my memory...this feature was more common 5-7 years ago (heck...it was even available back in the CRT monitor days)...but I don't think that it's a feature that's super common now. So great to hear that you were able to find something that will work. I bought a 24" HP monitor probably about 5 years ago that would have met many of your requirements: - height adjustable - pivotable - and it has a resolution that you don't find very often anymore...1920 x 1200 (slightly more area) But it is not an IPS panel, and because it is older...it doesn't have a Displayport...and it's not LED. That pivoting feature (for folks that have never experienced it)...can be really awesome. Especially for many webpages that are long vertically. You can see MUCH more of the webpage...and much less vertical scrolling!:) Looking forward to hearing how everything works out!:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
