21.5" monitor at MemoryExpress.com for $109.99 + 4.99 shipping
Why do I think that this is good?
IPS (In Plane Switching) LCD is much better than TN, the normal
inexpensive LCD technology. The best prices for IPS monitors are usually
closer to $200 rather than $100.
1920x1080, the highest mainstream resolution. Almost assumed these days.
LED backlight. More efficient than CFL, but fairly common these days
Three inputs: HDMI, DVI-D, and D-Sub. Of course it would be nice if it
had even more inputs, but this is generous for this low price.
Headphone out (surely only for sound coming from HDMI). No
built-in speaker, but still useful. Many monitors have no provision for
sound.
Note: I've not seen this monitor. It might actually have a horrible
picture.
