This is my current monitor, it works really well and goes full 1080p. It really works better if you use it as a monitor and run your sound directly to headphones, i found my sound was a lot better on headphones. $299 from costco with free shipping, great deal.

Do you get any ghosting with 5 ms response time? I have a 19" Viewsonic w/ 2ms and it is awesome!

Nope, no ghosting. 2ms vs 5ms is a difference that is impossible to notice to the human eye. If i remember correctly, the human eye has a 10ms threshold.
The LED/LCD is really nice too. Full 180 viewing and they are nice and bright, not to mention really energy efficient
