Just bought a 2007.

Whewww. My build is pretty much complete now. With this last purchase, I finally have everything to be satisfied.

Read this thread (http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1056851) at Hardforum for the deal.

I paid $356 total for the monitor. Initially $459, the 22% off, then a 35 off 300 coupon bought off eBay, after California tax, environmental fee, and free shipping. Great deal, and I hope I don't get a horribly banding monitor. Whenever I see the banding pictures, I can't really see what it is that's so bad, but I suppose I'll understand when I receive it on Wednesday.

Good luck with the new screen, it sure has alot of people worried hehe.

Here's a good insight on to what color banding is, and what it looks like:

Just recieved my 2007 and set up. It's flawless, looks like there aren't as many cases of banding as it seems like online. Maybe it's because only the people with problems post? Zero bleeding, no dead pixels, clean colors, great viewing angles, etc etc etc. You'd be stupid not to buy this, I LOVE IT. (came from 15", ouch)
