First of all the price is excellent.  :)

I have a Dell 22" widescreen monitor.When I'm browsing the interenet I never have the window to full width of screen I have it in about 2" from each edge.
The spec for that monitor is good,the response time is 5ms (the lower the better).You can usually go down to 2ms,so 5ms is quite good.
The resolution  of 1680 x 1050 is also very good.(less strain on your eyes)

IMO,for the price and a 3 year warranty it would be hard to miss it.

You will find nearly all monitors now are widescreen format.  :)

I completely agree with what Unc said (including the size of the browser window :) ).

I've been playing with said monitor ....  and I'm sorry (not really  >:D) to have to ask  something else  ::) ....     I found the screen too bright and the text not profound enough ... I've altered the brightness and contrast and also the 'gamma' settings  ...   the gamma setting was at 50  I pressed the button once which took it to Zero ...  and this looks fine, pressing it again took it to -50 which was very 'pinkish'  ... so back to Zero  ..  I just want to check that I've not done something I shouldn't   :angel: :D   Thank you in anticipation  !

Sounds ok............it's your eyes it has got to suit so fiddle with the settings until you get it comfy. You cannot do anything wrong, and you can always backtrack.

What I would do now is to open one of your images, one where you know what the colours, gamut and tonal range are and check that it looks ok on screen.  :)
