Yep finally ditching my old Samsung 19" Crt that bit the dust after 5 years lol. Got shipping for 1.99 and 100.00 off the price. LG W1952TQ 19" Widescreen LCD Monitor - 1440x900 WSXGA, 10000:1 Contrast Ratio, 2ms, DVI, VGA, Tilt Stand http://www.compusa.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3986505&csid=ITD&body=WARRANTY#tabs Ignoring the low resolution that contrast ratio is probably it's "dynamic" contrast ratio, which is another way of saying "we played with the backlight using only dark or only bright screens and measured it in a pitch black room". It's nowhere near what you'll actually be getting. That combined with the usual impossibly-low 2ms response times sets off my TN panel alarm. Link to comment
