The Hanns-G monitors don't seem to make their way up north very much (mustn't like the cold... :) ) and I'm not sure I've ever seen an Asus monitor ever.... Acer monitors have a decent rep if not as being top of the line.
As far as tuners go... if you're in the US it might be worth your while to see what's available there WRT PCI digital cable tuners. We can't get them here, but there are units available in the US which can decode digital signals.
