Was in a local PC shop the other day and noticed that the price of LCD monitors have plumetted since the last time I looked. I could get an LG 18 incher for about €650 which is £460 :eek: So - are they any good? I'm using a Dell (rebadged Sony) 19" CRT flatscreen monitor atm which is very good but pretty bulky. An 18" LCD should give me about the same viewable area and support the resolution I use (1280x1024). At work (in London) we have quite a few NEC 17" ones which look stunning when doing, errm, work (eg writing software, using word/excel etc) but are they up to scratch for playing fast moving games (not that I play many) and, more importantly, reasonably accurate photo editing? Once calibrated, my current monitor gives me a very good colour match to my prints when I'm doing Photoshop work - are LCDs as good in this respect? Michael.
