I was stuck between these two monitors myself. I ended up going with the Dell Ultrasharp one because I read good things about it, also I read that the Dell had a matte finish whereas the Acer, I saw nothing about a matte finish and glare is annoying.

 

I also loved the look of the Dell stand :3 It is pretty cool

I would go DELL, mostly because i don't like Acer. ASUS, BenQ or DELL when it comes to monitors :)
