A 24" 1080p LCD TV for only a touch over $300

In the TWiT Live studio we use these Vizio 24" 1080p LCD televisions for our production work. We monitor the live and preview outputs of our Tricaster Broadcast with them, and are planning to put more units around the rest of the cottage to allow people in the building to keep tabs on whats up in the studio.

These TVs are very high resolution for their size, so they would actually make a very good display for people who prefer larger type on their computers for visibility sake. If you have poor eyesight, want a large screen, and don't want microscopic print, this 24" 1920 x 1080 display would make an ideal computer screen for you.
