I considering these to monitors:

Samsung - 22" Widescreen Flat-Panel LCD HD Monitor -
Model: 2232BW

ViewSonic NX2232w 22" Widescreen LCD HDTV/Monitor Combo

The Samsung is not HD but it is 16:10...true HD format. I would put a tv tuner in PC.

Viewsonic is HD but is 16:9...not true HD format.

Samsung is one of the best. Viewsonic...I don't know about its reputation.

What things would YOU consider and what would you choose?

I don't know what you mean by "true HD" but HD movies are in 16:9 format not 16:10. Any "HD" resolution will be 16:9

1280 / 720 = 1.778
1920 / 1080 = 1.778
16 / 9 = 1.778
16 / 10 = 1.6

"True HD" is called 1080i/p.

That means 1920 x 1080.

There is no such thing as a stupid question.
But there are stupid people.
