I just bought a cheap Acer 22" and while it's nice for its size, it took quite a bit of fiddling to get the display to show balanced colors.

I only noticed it because it was sitting next to a display that provides far more accurate color reproduction. So if you don't mind the fiddling, it's been okay and was cheap.

A work monitor I have is a 20" viewsonic, of the same series as the one you're looking at. So if I had my choice, I would definitely get the 22" version that you're looking at (over the Acer and Gateway). Viewsonic has great color reproduction, good clarity, sharpness and uniform brightness.

I buy virtually all of my computer supplies from NewEgg as well -- highly recommended! The monitor I ordered with regular 3-day shipping and it arrived the next day! Amazing.
