How much worse is a LCD than a LED?
I have a choice between a 24" LCD and a 23" LED. Is there a big difference?

I bought two of these today. There always seems to be Asus monitors for $120-$140 after coupons and rebates from Newegg. This one seems like one of the better deals amongst those.

If I'm not mistaken, this one is better for the same price:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236305&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3928400&SID=skim2157X567668Xe78ffb50638121b3b85bf71523c4ea37
$20 more. But it has built-in speakers which for some will make it worth it.
His is $139 before rebate, $119 after.
Yours is $159 before rebate, $139 after.

159 minus 20 rebate minus 20 coupon MAYBEMINE1 = $119.

I'm just wondering cause I just ordered the Newegg one, I would switch if worth it.

I personally have never purchased from NewEgg. Just don't get a good feeling from them.

In terms of better/not better = all I know is that it's the lowest price for this particular product on Amazon (which I've been tracking now for a while for myself).

So same price.
Newegg has built in speakers, and 80,000,000:1 ASUS Smart Contrast Ratio
Amazon is 50,000,000:1 ASUS Smart Contrast Ratio

The higher the number, the brighter the colors.

Input methods:
Newegg,
HDMI x2
VGA x1

Amazon,
HDMI x1
DVI x1
VGA x1

Otherwise they look the same.

Newegg is solid.
I just bought the Newegg one, free shipping and arrived the next day. Enjoying it.
Plus you can sign up for Premier free trial and return free if you don't like.
What was so particular about this item that you were tracking it? No built in speakers...

I've bought many items from Newegg over the years, never had an issue with them product related.
Customer service (and their policies) is not as simple and convenient as Amazon, but they get the job done fairly quickly.

Yea, other than the fact that Newegg might be thinner... Not sure if that's a plus or a minus though..

Even if a screen is 23.9 it will still fall under 23" category..
