Hi Jeff,

Thanks for responding to my questions about the monitor. It's 
interesting what you found out about the differences in these
monitors. 
As usual, the sellers offer little information about such 
inconcistencies in their product line. It's hard to know which way to 
turn without the benefit of valuable comments like yours based on
first 
hand experience! I'm going for the 17" until the price of the larger 
ones become more affordable.
