I was wondering if anybody has a Dell E248WFP 24" lcd monitor? I see it at Costco for $379 delievered, and I was thinking for that price it would be neat to try having 2 24" lcd's side by side!

I guess no one has any experence with this monitor, I've read a couple of reviews seems fine for the price, I all ready have a Dell 2405 and I thought it would work fine for what I want!

True, I think I'll go for it, If I don't like it I can take it back to my local Costco, you can't beat the price, and a 3 year warrenty to boot! I'm just trying to talk myself into getting it!

Not a bad monitor. Few things i dont like, can raise it up and down, has no usb hub built into it, only has dvd-d and vga ports.

Yea my 2405 has all the that so for a second monitor it should be fine. My friend just got 2x20" planar lcd's and when I seen how having 2 monitors was I started looking for another, I never new how neat it would be using two monitor before!!!

Oh cool, I have a question? Do you have any problems playing games on 1 monitor and a website or other program on the other?

*SRTDodge05* · 03-15-2008, 09:42 PM

Thats Great, just what I wanted to know, I've been over on a arcade site playing a lot of flash games and I get caught up doing that and it would be great to have that on one screen and be able to play Stalker on the other. Thanks for all the info!!!!!!!!
