I am no genius, but you can buy a 24" LG at FutureShop for $599 with pretty much the exact same features

You obviously know i realize this. I just have a reciept of 900. Its kinda hard to get the balls to sell it for half that after you just paid that much.
Though its more expensive because of the extensive coverage on it.

This has a TV tuner built in, so it costs more than a normal monitor and cannot be compared to the $2-300 deals on similar sized monitors.

This would be a great monitor for a small room where you want to double up your computer as the TV without buying a TV tuner card and leaving the PC running all the time.

Not worth $700, maybe $4-500.

Thanks for a positive comment. I thought people would realized that because of the PIP feature (watch tv with small comp screen or use comp with small tv screen in corner...awsome feature) i went out to best buy jsut to compare and similar monitors are 500 ish with no additional service plan. Its up for sale at 700 OBO...so im open to anything just no lowballs.

My 24" Dell monitor does NOT have TV Tuner built in... So I simply hook up my cable box and stream the audio through my PC. Anyone with 1/2 brain should be able to figure that out. Who the fuck watches basic cable these days anyway?

PS: My monitor has PIP as well....

This monitor has alot more features than a standard screen.

So yes everyone we know you can go get a large screen for 100-300 dollars.

Go browse the higher end section of the store..that is where this monitor falls in place.

It's a really good monitor, we used to sell out of these very quickly. You won't get close to $700 just because people shop by price not value. If i remember clearly, when the monitor went clearance it was at about $500

I looked into a monitor like this cause my PC doesn't have a TV tuner card, so it's a good alternative for anyone that doesn't want to run their TV through their PC. Plus a lot of the TV tuner cards suck, and for the aditional price, why not spend it on a better monitor instead.

Basic cable? who cares, hook the digital box up and this just works.

I just think its silly most monitors don't include this, the TV tuner is an additional $10-50 item to add to a monitor, yet the monitors with it included are way marked up.
