I have to say I haven't had any problems with mine! Ghosting only happens on sub-$200 LCDs as far as I know or if they're several year old. It seems pretty silly to me to dismiss an entire technology based on flaws it had when it was rather new to the consumer world or on the ultra cheap bottom of the line versions of them but maybe that's just me

Poor oppressed little Kegwen. I don't care that you have two LCDs or not. Kirane was bragging again, and I was talking to him. If you like your monitors that are barely bigger than your keyboards, then that's fine. But it is far from a sin for people to be using CRTs.

And I just realized that Nem and I have the same monitor and speakers. I dunno if we have the same size monitor or not, but it's the same model, definately. Neat.


Oh I agree with you. Kirane was being an ass and he deserved to be called on it, but buying more expensive things than what you have doesn't mean that they're dumb or that they've been ripped off.

I've had no problems with ghosting even on my cheap $300 17 inch lcd.

My main 20" LG LCD displays better then any CRT I've owned.

Very old TV and found out it was fucking up my monitor (still have some slight discolouration in the corner because of it but it's out of warranty and doesn't bother me).

My room is an EM-field-o-rama.

The camera flash makes my carpet look almost neon blue.

To the naked eye it's simply dark blue. I'd show it with the flash off but I'm too lazy to put the batteries back in the camera right now, maybe later.

Depends on your needs, for gameing I think the trend is to CRT's and Plasma Displays, I belive LCd's still have very poor refresh rates compared CRT's. But if you are just doing work, not a big gamers, LCD's are very nice space savers.

Do you realize that 60 fps means 16.6 ms refresh? Did you further realize that you can get LCDs with a 8 ms white-black-white refresh rate? And did you realize, even further, that it is a rare event in a video game where the screen will go from white to black to white twice in one frame?

LCDs are perfectly suitable for gaming. Better if you ask me, since they are easier to lug to a lan party.

You can get an 8ms LCD really cheap now, which eliminates the ghosting issue, and the screen size is generally actually bigger than a CRT since a 19" LCD will use the full 19" whereas a 19" CRT will only be 18" viewable. LCDs are also better on your eyes, generate less heat, have a better picture (in general), and consume less power.
