Maybe someone more techy than me can help me out.

What I want: minimum 1080P/IPS/preferably 24 inches. Will be used for playing some video games but lots of data entry (excel/word) and web browsing as well. I was looking at this:

Dell - S2440L 24-inch Full HD Monitor with LED : Computer Components | Dell Canada Dell S440L my main gripe is I haven't seen this in real life so I have no idea how it looks.
Pros: Looks sweet (build wise) -- edge to edge glass
Cons: No features as far as connectivity options/usb hubs etc. go. Also stand is very basic, only has tilt.

Or

Asus PA238QR
ASUS PA238QR 23IN Widescreen LED Backlit IPS LCD Monitor 1920X1080 6MS 50M:1 HDMI DisplayPort HAS

Pros: Tons of inputs, can hook up my macbook pro easily, HDMI + headphone out so I can hook up headphones easily + built in USB hub. Sweet stand. Cheaper price, available locally (don't have to order)
Cons: Only 23 inches -- don't know if that little one inch difference really matters though.

Anyone own either or, or have any input? Gonna order tomorrow. I can't live with 1440x900 on my PC anymore, feels like I'm living in poverty land


EDIT: Also you guys looking at the korean screens keep in mind a lot of them require dual link DVI .. might be cheaper to get name brand rather than buy korean + a good video card with dual dvi
