It's getting good reviews but you have to remember that it's a budget level monitor it's not going to have the great specs and picture of higher end monitors.
I'm looking at getting one this xmas since I need a second monitor and I prefer my 21" CRT for gaming.

I was gonna buy it for myself, and parents told me they were gonna get it for me on Xmas... It's gonna be a definite upgrade from my current crappy CRT...

I can pick one up for $50 (and trading my father my current 19") but reading Dell's forums and other reviews I might reconsider. I read a bunch of stuff that does not sound good. So those who might be thinking about it should do some research.

Reading reviews, it'll make a good monitor for my parents, but I think I'm gonna look elsewhere... Plus its almost X-mas so bound to find a cheap one somewhere.

This might be a better one and only 1 inch smaller and a 100 bucks cheaper:
