I'm thinking about getting a 17" tft for around 躔. I was wondering what their ups and downs are. Also, if anyone knows where to get them for even cheaper then 躔, that would be nice.

The only thing about LCD's that bug me are when you get one (and you do fairly often) that has pixels stuck on or off. We have two at work, and each has 2 or 3 pixels that are permanently green or red. I mean, it's not much, but it is kind of annoying.

Another possible problem is that they run REALLY well at one resolution, but not so well at others. A 17" would probably be around 1152x864 or 1280x1024 or so. Which isn't a bad resolution, but then again, I didn't think 1024x768 was a bad resolution until I got my 19" monitor

I guess what I'm trying to say is that you are kind of stuck at the optimum resolution...

But DAMN they are nice... did you see the IBM T220? *drool*

And don't think of trying to do any type of serious graphical work with them 'cause they make the colors kinda screwy.

That's only if you get the cheap ones (ie less than about 軆 for an analog 17", less than about 輪 for a digital 17").

How about because you can get a 21" Sony GFD CRT for the same price as a 15" TFT? Or perhaps because if you get a non-top-of-the-line TFT your frames will start blurring together? Or maybe it won't operate at a higher FPS? Or perhaps it won't be poreous and will substitute pixel structure, because it can't adjust the actual pixel size? Something like that. Despite all the hype I don't think it's worth it.

...Though, if I had Ů,500 and I could spend it on NOTHING else but a monitor I would most definitely get this.

I don't believe the refresh rate is measured conventionally... notice the "displayed as quad 960x2400 stripes @41HZ"
