I've been using an LG L1715S 17" flat panel display for the past 4.5 years, so I figured it's time for an upgrade. Primarily, I intend to use my new (hypothetical) monitor to view HD (1080p) movies, for painting purposes with my Wacom Intuos tablet, and as a HDMI-input display for my Xbox 360.
BenQ's G2400WD (24") seems to cover my "basic" needs. Simplicities aside, it offers a 1920x1200 px native resolution at 135 Hz, a 4000:1 (dynamic) image contrast ratio, a 2 ms response time and a 160° horizontal and vertical view angle (see the link for more details). It is also relatively inexpensive, but is supposedly prone to an occasional dead pixel or two.
Do you have any other suggestions? Have you had any bad experiences with BenQ? If so, tell me now, or I will know about your techno-treason in the year 2045 when the contents of your brain become downloadable!
