Alright, It sounds like you found the one you're looking for. The only thing I suggest is NOT buying it at newegg. Their return policy for dead-pixels or other monitor defects are atrocious.
| quote: | Newegg Return Policy
The following conditions are not acceptable for return, and will result in the merchandise being returned to you:
Any LCD screen that has less than 8 dead pixels |
In my opinion, 1 dead pixel is unacceptable let alone 7. |

ive been reading the reviews of the LG one and supposedly the text gets quite fuzzy.. i will do some coding on it and it is unacceptable.
Im about to give up and just buy a pc monitor |

Yeah the difference between TV's & Monitors comes down to Pixel pitch. TV's are meant to be viewed from a distance, so each individual pixel is larger. The issue with that is up-close viewing.
Monitors are meant to be viewed from a relatively close distance, so each individual pixel on monitor is quite a bit smaller.
That's why you can find LCD monitors with the capability to do 1920x1080 resolution in a size that you won't find TV's capable of (Well, now you can find smaller TV's capable of 1080p, but at first that resolution was only available to much larger sizes). |

I live in the dominican republic, and actually, the selection for TVs and Monitors here is awful.. most stores carry 10-15 ty models and EXPENSIVE as hell. a 32' vizio would cost around 1200 here |

:wtf:
the only reason people buy vizios here is that they're cheap. that defeats the entire purpose. |

| lol, but those are 'cheap', mid-end sonys and samsung costs around 2k here |
