Why is it that I can buy a laptop with a 17" 1920x1200,
but I can't get that on a desktop lcd?  Just price-point for mfgs?
Maybe in medical imaging and research... 100+dpi lcd's should
be in more consumer products :)

Beefed up eh? 19" wide is quite different from most 20" and all
22" wides. A 19" wide only does 1440x900 whereas many 20" and
all 22" wides do 1680x1050.

As for timings, most LCDs should be within a few Mhz/Khz of each
other. These are for my 17" square at 1280x1024.

    HorizSync       30.0 - 81.0
    VertRefresh     56.0 - 75.0
