    I have had the Chimei 22" for over 12 months and have no complaints at all , expecially with the price ( which no doubt is even cheaper again now )

    i recently argued with a guy about chimei being terrible cheap lowend crap.

    ive had 2 chimeis running in dual screen mode for the passed 2 years. both run flawlessly.

    ill be upgrading in the near future chimei's again.
    i really can't tell the difference between most lcd's of the same size. but aren't most just the same panel rebadged?

    i can't justify spending up massive on an apple cinema.
