Acer AL2216Wbd @ Office Depot

Acer 22Price: $199.99 after $70 mail-in rebate
Dates: Sun, June 17 through Sat, June 23

This is the lowest I’ve ever seen the 22” widescreen by Acer. The normal price of this runs from $270-300, which is OK for a monitor of this size. I was almost going to post this entry by mentioning the great $248 price tag at Directron until I came across this week’s Office Depot circular and saw it for $200!

While I don't have firsthand experience with this model, I’ve been using the 19" sibling for about 2 months now. The quality is great, especially through DVI. Both my Mac and PC look good on it. Another major plus about Acer is they include the DVI cable. Many manufacturers don’t. This cable is worth around $20.

Note: If you plan on getting this, make sure your graphics card has at least 64 MB RAM and it supports a 1680x1050 native resolution (some older cards don’t).
