Re: Flat Planel Displays Are WAY Better
I've used the alcohol wipes for years on both my monitors without problems. But yeah, you should probally refer to the manufacterer.
With LCDs, it's a lot sharper, because you don't have to mess with the path of electrons hitting the correct pixels on the screen. The no black border is cool, makes me look at CRT monitors and wonder if that's what I really had to suffer with for years.

Re: Flat Planel Displays Are WAY Better
The biggest screen size is about 60 inches. In other words, really really big.

Re: Flat Planel Displays Are WAY Better
WOW!!! 
So what is the price, about $600 USD per inch? $3,600.00 for a 60 inch screen. I would love something like that for my computer. I could use the life size ICONs. 
Thanks for the info, but what about manufactures? Who's got a good rep and a quality product? |

Re: Flat Planel Displays Are WAY Better
Sharp Aquos and anything by LG are fantastic. (LG's stuff all comes from Zenith's foray into the high-tech display market a few years back.)
If you go for a rear-projection setup with a DLP projector like NEC and a hanging or mounted translucent screen like a Da-Lite you can do 200" or more. It's all time and money my friends.

Re: Flat Planel Displays Are WAY Better
Well, after seven years of dedicated service, my Compaq monitor finally bit the big one, refusing to power up, etc., etc. So, I just ordered a Samsung to replace the old soldier. This means a viking funeral for both computer and screen now... Guess I am making a trip to the coast this weekend.
