P.S.-I would be using it with the DVI input, not the hdmi

thanks,

I don't, but Dell monitors get good reviews generally.

DVI and HDMI are the same video signal. HDMI just adds the audio.

I've got two of the 2408 Dell monitors, and they're awesome. I've got them connected to the DVI ports on the MacPro, along with a 37" LCD connected to a Blackmagic Intensity Pro card via HDMI. I can't recommend the Dell monitors enough, especially at the price.

I have a 2408 and it gets the job done. If I needed to do anything that involved image accuracy (gfx or print or something) I wouldn't have bought it but I just wanted something to make a good Browser/Tool Palette home and could be easily rotated into portrait mode. The variety of inputs are nice although in reviews I've read that the analog video inputs are not so hot.
