I want to buy a LCD monitor for non-game usage. I have a hdtv card and watch dvd,s and do graphics but no color calibration or print stuff.
19'' inches is fine but the market is flooded with them even in the lower prices. The specs are either not complete or not standardized or to much. Either way I don,t understand half of the stuff and the other half could be the stuff that might matter. I am not able to decide and that means no LCD. But I think LCD fall into the rare category of " If it looks good, get it". I will be using it for something to "look at" only. So If find one at a retail store that has a picture I like, base on that alone (and a reasonable warranty that I can look at it for at least a year) I can decide what LCD to buy and skip all the specs about resolution and dead pixels................ and so on? Or I have simplified things to much and will feel (or be) like a idiot later.- posted
