If you can spend a little more, the 7KLRa model is best. :) > but the most important is knowing how to adjust it's 'refresh rate' > to protect your eyes. you must set your video card adapter's refresh > rate to at least 72hz (the monitor repaints the screen 72 times per > second). this will prevent flickering and eyestrain (not the > cracker) from attacking you. it works really. 85Hz is recommended, although the higher it is the better. Only the really good monitors have refresh rates higher than 100Hz at greater resolutions. I've seen some monitors reach 100Hz at 1600x1200, although things would really be squished by then on a 17" monitor. -------------------------------------- Gino LV.
