Best LCD monitor.... Well if youcan afford it

#1 Post by daeojkim » Tue Feb 01, 2005 12:44 am

I came across this monitor while browsing.
I must say it is the most impressive LCD monitor that I have encountered. I would love to see it in person, actually I would like to own one if I can afford it..

Anyways check it out IBM T221 LCD monitor.

And for that kind of money the specs are not that impressive
Brightness is only 235 and contrast 400.
My 2 year old mitsubishi has better specs. However it is only 15 inch.

Not really for the same market but i really like this new Sony coming out.

The Sony MFM-HT75W looks pretty cool and has xBrite

Too bad the resolution is only at 1280x768. For daily T4x SXGA+ users it's not really enough.

Well actually it is not the size that I was impressed with. Look at the resolution of the IBM and Viewsonic monitors. 3840 x 2400. You would probably need heck of a video card to use that monitor smoothly at those resolutions. That is like having 4 1920 x 1200 resolution monitors.
