Look at the Dell UltraSharp line. Very good monitors.

Thanks so much for the advice. I probably will have to invest in a new
monitor sooner than later. Any advice on which one to get. Mind you, I'm a
photographer on more of the hobby side with occasional jobs here and there.
I can't afford a very expensive monitor so any advice on the less expensive
would be great. Thanks again!!!

display is quite time, so your room lighting should be dim as well, and that
you may have to replace your display sooner than you would like, if it
continues to get dimmer.
