The one downside of the U2410 is their quality control seems a bit on the lax side, there has been an issue with people getting panels with a colour variation across the screen, check HardOCP's thread on the U2410 for more info. Some people had to return their monitor 4-5 times before they got one that was satisfactory to them.

There used to be a dithering problem as well but they fixed that with the latest revision of the firmware. I returned mine a while back to have the dithering problem fixed, and I had to exchange it 4 times before I got one that was good, they all had dead pixels or bad colour variation.

The other things I like about the monitor is it comes calibrated and with a report of that calibration. It also lets you pick a colour mode so you can go with sRGB for Windows and games since those apps expect sRGB, and then you can switch to the extended colour gamut for Photoshop or other apps that support more colours.
