RE: I bought a monitor
my dad has a samsung 17" lcd and i have 2 syncmaster 710v's one of them gives a different color at a the exact same settings but its something you get used to (could be that i have my newer one plugged into my dvi adapter.)

edit: nope. they must change either in production over time or just i got a bad one.

RE: I bought a monitor
Play with the menu on your monitor, mine (also a SyncMaster 151n) is set to:
brightness: 50
contrast: 50
fine: 93
coarse: 1317
Color Control...
R: 50
G: 50
B: 50

I believe the default settings are brightness 80 and contrast 70, which are just too high. No idea why Samsung made those default :s.
Finish the problem

Alot? LCDs need bulbs cause thier like gameboys. (infact they are used in gameboys:P) They can't actually illuminate the pixels, they just color them. So thier needs to be a backlight to illuminate the screen. (btw all computer LCD monitors contain backlights)
