say it's not so!!!
Look at the photo I posted, it is less than 1/8" larger than the Dell 170Xxx series. The monitor on the left is a 1704FPv the right is the 2001FPw. only a difference of 26 pixels larger on the vertical.

I was being sarcastic guys.
I thought it was obvious that a widescreen is going to be shorter than a 4:3 monitor with the same diagonal measurement.
Isn't that obvious to everybody? Does anyone really expect a 20-inch widescreen to be just as tall as a regular 20-inch monitor?

I prefer the widescreen now that I've been using it for a while, it's quite nice to have 2 pages open sidy by side

Not more than twenty minutes after you bought yours someone posted on spoofy that the coupon was dead. Well played.

Bastards. I saw this on a deal site this morning just after it expired. I would have bought it, but now the price is up $100.

Ah fuck I knew I should have waited longer before buying my Sony. The monitor is fan-fucking-tastic and I like the XBRITE screen look...but damn, I could have had this Dell for a hundred less.
Ah well...

It all depends on their stock, usually once a month, but last month they released 1000, then it expired and a week later they re-released another 1000, and 2 days later released another 4000. I'm guessing they have some 3rd world kids working hard on these so it should be soon.
I should have waited a month I got mine for 396 ($420 shipped)

In fact, it's even made me think about getting one of those super-geeky desk-clamp steering wheels and a good racing game. :icon32:
