Default Samsung 206BW or LG L222WT

I am looking to get a new monitor. The choices are the ones I said above. The LG looks nice because it is on sale. Here http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...gon=&langid=EN

or

http://www.memoryexpress.com/Product...16396(ME).aspx

Which is better. The LG is 21.6 inches, isn't that a weird size?

I say to go with the 206BW since most Samsungs have a better color gamut.
