One of the Best LCD's and full of connections, 2008-08-26
First of, people talk about TN panels as if it were a weakness.
It is not. The only negative thing I keep on hearing is that TN panels suffer from poor viewing angles. However, there's only one angle and that's in front of me.
Having said that the packaging on the item is simple, plastic wrap, foam padding on the corners and the box.
I, like the previous reviewer, had a 19"inch. I had a 21ms, 4:3 Samsung 910T.
Now going from 19" to 24" WD is amazing. The refresh rate alone is great for gaming. 2ms to 5ms.
The 1:1 Ratio is truly do able (check your video card for it might be disabled)
The stand wobbles a bit if you bump into it. Just make sure when you move the LCD to make sure you do it properly.
The Monitor Offers 3 ways to connect:
1. HDMI
2. DVI
3. VGA
So it can be a bit future proof (HDMI)
I've played TF (1920x1200)
Devil May Cry (1920x1200) 85mhz
Tom Clancy Vegas 2 (1920x1200)
Bioshock (1920x1200)
I've yet to experience ghosting of any form.
The only negative to this monitor/screen is the fact that it doesn't have a height adjuster. The only thing you can adjust is the up and down viewing angles.
Now on personal exp.
I still forget I have 5-6inches left of screen when I'm gaming.
I have to sit back at times to watch videos because of its size .
I got this for two ninety and it is worth every penny. I wish I had more $$ to get a dual screen going.

Excellent for a TN panel, 2008-06-24
Overall, the monitor represents a good value. The TN panel has limited viewing angles. However, for a TN panel, the viewing angles are good. The backlight uniformity appears quite good. The colors seem fairly well calibrated out of the box.
Pros:
-Colors are fairly well calibrated out of the box
-Excellent value considering the quality compared to other TN panels
-My two monitors both came without discernable dead pixels
Cons:
-Still a TN panel (VA or particularly IPS panels usually have better viewing angles)
-No height adjustment in the base/stand
-Limited multi-media inputs but HDMI is sufficient for most needs
Search for reviews of the G2400W (the older model) for many rave reviews on tech sites.

An overall great monitor with a killer price, 2008-06-23
This is one of my best purchases from Amazon. Although I have only had this monitor for a few days, I already can tell it is definitely a great product.
I went from a 19'' LCD to this 24'' and the increase in size is very noticeable. The image is great and the colors seem to be relatively balanced out the box. The design is very simple, but it doesn't look cheap. The stand has no height adjustment, only tilt. Also mine had no dead pixels.
The packaging is not so great, because the foam wrappings were in contact with the screen and in some parts this caused a slight mark that is noticeable when it is turned off.
Aside from that, the price is just unmatched, even if there are other 24'' LCDs that are cheaper, this one offers HDMI connection and 1:1 pixel mapping, both features are next to impossible to find at this price range.
