Dell U2311H or Dell ST2220T

[Scott Thibodeau]

Hiya folks,

Here's the scoop. I'm looking at these two monitors. One of them is a touch screen which would come in handy for me. I'm going to be travelling and editing as I travel so my secondary monitor being a touch screen would have a lot of different applications that I could use. The thing is, I don't want to give up too much when it comes to the display. I was wondering if anyone has had some experience with these monitors, primarily the touch screen, and if you can provide any feed back. Thank you very much in advance.

Scott
