Heh, I wish I could get a 24" flat panel past my planning department. :-( I agree with Godfrey about the Samsungs. They tend to be very nice monitors. The Dell flat panels, at least the higher end ones, are also very nice. If your video card doesn't have a DVI output, be sure to add one that does to the shopping list. For doing casual photoshop work, a $40 card will work as well as a $400 card. The important part is the DVI connector, and the ability to drive your monitor at its optimum resolution (probably 1920x1200 pixels for a wide-screen 24" LCD). LCD monitors will show visible artifacts when run at lower resolutions than their optimum (maximum) resolution, and feeding the the LCD with a digital signal takes out a source of noise and calibration inaccuracy. -Mat -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
