I just snagged a 19" widescreen Samsung 906BW on ebay for $170 shipped. It's
crystal clear at 2000:1 with a 2ms latency.
LCD monitors can digitally enhance the contrast ratio much farther than the
physical LCD is capable. Where you really see quality in LCD is the latency

I was over at Sams earlier this morning, took a look at various panels.
Contrast ratio ran all the way from 1000:1 on an Olevia 50some" to
25000:1 (or something like that) on a Sony that was a bit smaller, with
prices to match. The Olevia looked like a washed-out watercolor, while

Oh? I thought Samsung made their own and for Sony.
Ahh a Google search yields that Samsung sometimes uses their own panels but not

I'm sure there are, but they're probably around $100. You can also get
a TV tuner for about $50, and then you can record TV shows to the
computer. Also, y
Are there any adapters that let you put a TV signal (e.g. from a

Pretty common when an LCD is run at a non-native resolution.
For instance my 17" Samsung is rated for max 1280x1024, crank it down to
1024x768 and it gets blurry.
Crank it down again (I can't remember, not to 800x600 but something just above)
and its a native resolution and its sharp again...

Samsung 1920x1200 resolution, they come in various sizes, and make sure
your video card can drive it to that resolution. Also look at contrast
ratio -- the cheap ones are like 1000:1, the Samsungs are 3000:1. That
makes a big difference. A good TV LCD is now up over 10k:1, maybe higher.
