Led is the latest - lcd is ok but has viewing angle problems - plasma is
better quality than lcd but more expensive - crt is marginally better than
lcd and plasma for colour, resolution, brightness and contrast.
If I had to recommend I'd go for a large plasma - the newer the better
as the colours deteriorate with age. Monitor or television either will do as
long as it has vga and/or dvi and either can be run from the computer - ATI
Displays advanced controls can be used with the 9800 or the 9200 to flip the
display 90% to portrait or landscape - though flipping the large screen 90%
may require a very sturdy mechanism.
