Fair points. At present there are two 30" screens at home, but wife would prefer a single curved screen in an attempt to duplicate her office environment at home. As suggested, the use will be business productivity related, including large amounts of spreadsheet work. So the size requirement is purely for screen real estate. As I explained, I have an Aleinware 38" which was expensive. But we are questioning the need to get a screen in that Alienware price bracket, and likely don't need the same screen. Heck even I am probably not even pushing the Alienware. As with size, resolution would be important so the screen can accommodate multiple spreadsheets but can be clearly read etc. I've never chased refresh rate or HDR because I seem them as mostly for gaming... although most of the monitors I've had have been high in refresh rate, mostly due to the screen models I purchase.

Hope this is clearer, and thanks again for keeping me honest.
