	I've been surfing dealmac for large LCD monitors. They usually post TN panels, and apparently didn't notice this one at CompUSA was different. It's a factory refurbished 24" Gateway FPD2485W for $300 + ship. Research revealed it uses a Samsung S-PVA panel LTM240M2. That is one of the panels used in the Dell 2407WFP. Dell currently sells the 2407 refurbished for $500. It's not quite what I was looking for, but someone here may be interested in a 24" non-TN monitor on the cheap. The only gotcha I noticed (besides being made by Gateway) is that the warranty is only 90 days.
