Hi, I'm considering replacing my ageing 17" CRT monitor with a 15" TFT. This list may not be the most appropriate forum to ask for advice, but I know many of you are using TFT monitors (the ones built in your ThinkPads). I'm planning to use 1024 x 768 as the resolution, based on the (hopefully correct) assumption that a 15" TFT monitor really has a 15" displayable area (as opposed to 17" CRT typically having 15.5"-16") and also is brighter and higher quality. Which of the following characteristics should attract my attention: dot pitch, brightness, contrast ratio, refresh rate. Any opinions about the following monitors: Compaq TFT500 (or TFT450) IBM 9514 LCD Mitsubishi LCD50 Samsung SyncMaster 500 TFT ViewSonic VPA150 (or VPA145) Thanks, Dominique -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Dominique Pivard <domi@kenavo.fi> Helsinki, Finland -----------------------------------------------------------
