Try http://www.senecadata.com/ they have our state contract for computers and accessories, they are also a Samsung dealer. My contact is Tim Insley (sorry I don't have his email at home). The last time we bought monitors, we bought Samsung 226BW or the newer version with the height adjustable pedestal. I don't use them for calibrated imaging, but they are certainly a really good monitor. The price when we bought the last batch almost a year ago was around or under $250. The 226 is a widescreen 22 inch monitor. We currently have 16 of the older 226BW and 5 of the newer version. One of the newer version was defective and Tim got me a replacement in very short order (also helps that his office is in the same "mega city" *). I'm sure he can get you a good price on any other Samsung models.


* as cities expand they eventually grow to the townships around them making what I call a "mega city", just part of the urban sprawl.
