Any HP ZR24w owners in Mid/East Sussex area that could give a demo?

After 2 unsuccessful attempts at moving to a 24" monitor from my Viewsonic VX2025WM, I've decided that I must try a monitor before I buy!

The HP ZR24w looks, on paper, like a good choice, so I was wondering if there were any owners in Sussex that might be prepared to give me a demo?

I can bring chocolate or beer, your choice.

I'm not near you but am sitting in front of mine right now and it's a great monitor!

Ha ha! That's what everyone said about the Dell 2407, and it's what I used to say about the Samsung 2443BW I use at work, until I tried playing a game on it.

I think it would be a lot less hassle for both parties if you just buy the monitor and become aware of your rights under DSR (Distance Selling Regulations). You can effectively 'try before you buy' and if you don't like it - alert the retailer within the first week and they are legally obliged to issue a refund.

Hmmm, that's a good point. My two concerns there are:

1. I have to pay to return it, which will be expensive.
2. Not all companies accept their DSR obligations straightaway, which means potentially arguing about restocking fees and other nonsense.

Thanks for the advice, guys. I think I will go the DSR route.
