    KDS Rad 5

    $348 at Walmart.

    Seriously.

    Most bang for the buck.

    Read the reviews for the Rad 5. If you have any problems, Walmart will take it back or let you exchange it. One thing about Walmart, you can find one anywhere.

    My roommate has the KDS, and I must say, I'm really impressed with it. Games and DVDs look great on it. It is a much better performer than a lot of LCDs that cost $100-200 more. I'm thinking about picking one up for LAN parties and whatnot.

    I have a Samsung 570v and am satisfied with it. Text is outstanding. Bright games are excellent, however, its hard to see when playing dark games, increasing the brightness just makes the dark, well brighter, and doesn't do much for being able to see. You can pick one of these babies up for about 350 U$D though
