Re: [Digital BW] lcd vs crt monitors...off topic

2003-11-17 by Sam McCandless

I'm wondering about a new monitor too, and the most interesting 
reference I've found on the subject is a Seybold 2002 White Paper on 
the 21-inch Sony Artisan CRT. It's available by going to

clicking on the link to the Artisan micro site, choosing "TOUCH", and 
then clicking on the White Paper's link (top right).

The Artisan comes with both the hardware and the software for 
profiling it. And anyone who already has profiling resources with 
which they're satisfied might consider instead Sony's other upscale 
21-inch CRT, the GDM F520, which Sony shows at:

For the past four years, I've been very happy with its 19-inch uncle, 
the F420, now discontinued. Nevertheless, when I get a new Mac, I 
think I might get an Apple Cinema LCD display to go with it.
