Default Is this a good deal for Dell monitor? how is it so cheap?

thining about picking up some new flat screen monitors, two for that matter.
I know guys on this forum speak highly of the Dell 2001fp.
But how are the monitors in the below link? How is it possible that they are this cheap? I am seriously considering buying two of these.
As I know nothing about monitors, any suggestions/advice would be much appreciated.

Dell 2005FPW

what do u mean wrong resolution? Sorry for the noob question but i know nothing about monitors.

I know that the 2001fp is erally popular here becuase of it's max resolution so people can fit 4 tables on one monitor.

exactly. I was just kidding though, those are great monitors for a great price if the overlap doesn't bother you. The widescreen is just bonus.

The PP tables are 800x600, so 4 tables fit perfectly on a 2001fp (1600x1200) screen.
With the 2005fpw 4 tables will slightly overlap.

if you play on party they just released new beta software where you can resize the tables, makes this monitor a great deal

I would wait though b/c the 2001fp was only 430 or so about a month ago and I believe the 2005 was under 400

if you only play 2 tables then you can fit 2 on the 2005 w/out overlap I believe
