Hi all:
I've been looking for a new monitor, and stumbled across your thread, which I've been reading for the last few hours. I decided to join the forum and see if I might find some specific advice.
My job has me spending about 6 hours a day in front of my monitor reading text. No fancy graphics, no gaming ever. 99% of the time I'm just reading websites and documents.
I currently use a 21" Nokia Multigraph 445Xpro CRT, which was quite a good monitor in its day. I've borrowed a few older 17" LCD's over the years to try out, but couldn't stand them after a while because they were too bright, with poor contrast, and noticeable pixelized text.
I'w curious if there is a modern LCD panel that experts recommend for folks like me, who need an easy-on-the-eyes, hours-at-a-time text machine? All the reviews seem to focus on gaming and photography, so I am not certain what the critical attributes are for non overly bright text, with good contrast and low SDE/pixelization?
Any ideas or recommendations, including size, resolution, adjustments/settings and specific models would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
