21 inch compaq I stole from a computer store I worked at.

 

Still pictures are the strong point of LCD.
My Viewsonic LCD had a better picture quality than my Mitsubishi CRT.

However LCD have their inconvenience.
First, you can't change their resolution without losing picture quality. My LCD was rated 1280x1024 for best picture quality. Need to step that down and you get an awful picture. Try to play any games in 1280x1024, and you'll get shitty performances...

And when it comes to FPS game that are fast like UT, then you get that ghosting effect.

LCD are great for general use... but ghey for gaming. Period.

 

Viewsonic E90 i bought a few years ago.. it crapped out on me about a year ago, sent it to viewsonic, they fixed it, sent it back, and havent had any problems since.

 

so... the biggest selling points were small footprint, and crisp still images for the LCD... but the only ones with a quick enough refresh time (25ms or less) were the Samsung Synchmaster 172N, and the Sony... however, the Synchmaster 172N has become antiquated and Samsung really needs a quicker refresh (<15ms) in order to keep up with computers like mine that run 150+FPS on Quake III & Unreal... I played on the guys computer across the hall, and shoot 'em ups on the Samsung (rated #1 by multiple sources... same LCD as the Dell) were fairly ghosted & text blurred the brighter it was turned...


Thank god for CRT's...

 

the LCD i'm gettin soon even tho im a CRT fan is a NEC/mitsubishi because of the 16ms.....they're great performers with great features

dvi and vga input and a switch to swap between em

 

why swap between them? is there and advantage to the VGA input over the DVI input on an LCD?

 

im just sayin, you can have a dualie setup with one screen or one monitor to control two computers

 

im guessing mines about a 17" flat screen..sony..
