    Just pulled the trigger on a no review monitor(New Asus Model)

    Seriously considering buying the LED version of this - ASUS VE278Q for $350+ Shipping. Is the LED version worth the $25? My TV just died, and I want to play XBox again! (I'l be able to watch TV with this thru my Cable Box w/ HDMI right?...until I can buy an actual TV)
