Ugh, smart monitors now? I didn't want that crap on HDTVs, and now it has trickled over to monitors. Fantastic. At least offer cheaper versions of the same models that don't include any of that crap. I don't need my displays to be computers in and of themselves, with multi-core processors, Internet access, running some kind of simplified OS, and running apps.

Oh wow, I missed that. The last time I used a VA panel (which was a curved monitor too, which I also didn't like), I ended up selling the monitor within 8 months of getting it. When it comes to LCDs, VA panels are not for me. I'm an IPS guy.
