i think the first one also have a tv tuner included.

 

[apj101]

is this for gaming, if it is you sould not be looking at anyting above 16ms responce time to prevent ghosting.

 

[kof2000]

[kof2000]

Yeh

Could have got something better in my opinion with a lower response rate. Oh well, I guess you will be happy with your choice however. I have a 25ms LCD monitor and have never seen that ghosting problem people mention.
