LCD VS. CRT - For Clayton Jones

LCD VS. CRT - For Clayton Jones

2004-11-02 by Joe

Clayton you have helped me with all your work on BO printing, paper
information, profiles etc etc. Consequently I have come to respect
your opinion. Therefore can you tell us what LCD display you are
using and if you had to purchase a new one now what would you get?

Hello Joe,

>can you tell us what LCD display you are using 

I'm using a Microtec C586p, 15".  I chose it (3 yrs ago) primarily
because it had the best looking image of about a dozen models in my
price range that I looked at in Comp USA and Office Depot.  Another
factor is it has a simple power cord, not an AC adapter cube
(despicable things).

I'm a programmer by trade, and work at home.  Between that and my
passionate photo avocation, I stare at it all day every day (and
sometimes all night).  The LCD made a _HUGE_ difference in eyestrain
for me.  I'd never go back to CRT.



>and if you had to purchase a new one now what would you get?

I don't know, I have neither thought about it nor done any research. 
I'd probably go for a 17" (and no AC cube <g>).


Regards,
Clayton
