OP, are you looking to use this as a computer monitor too?

i believe almost every LED monitor coming out right now has a max resolution of 1920x1080. this makes it the perfect resolution for gaming (obviously). for earlier CCFL-backlit LCD monitors, they will give you 1920x1200 resolution, which is great for computer usage but not as good for gaming because the game is stretched out to fit the 1200 height resolution, which makes for a slightly distorted look.

anyway, i believe a samsung is best suited for your needs.

OP I just bought this the other day, should arrive tomorrow or the next day.

If you're cheap like me, I don't see how you can beat 248.00 flat (no tax and free shipping).

24" w/ 1920 x 1080 resolution, 1080p (I know the difference is negligible on anything under 37"), LED, 30000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, etc. It's also covered by manufacturer warranty.

It basically has everything I need in a bedroom television. I've read online that they use Samsung parts too, hope that's true.
