JackBurton: Do you mind posting an evaluation of your Sony after you get it? I looked at a few at CompUSA but did not like how reflective the screen was compared to others. There was nothing actually running on it so I could not tell how much of an issue this would be.
The 'reflextiveness' is apart of the coating and the screen. Helps to make the images very bright and vibrant. Some people HATE it but some LOVE IT. Looks VERY good on their laptops imo though.

Colours and (for me) bad resolutions are the real issue I have with LCD's.
Give me 1600x1200 at 18" or 19" any day.
So far you have to go 20" for a 16x12.

Exactly! Why are LCDs these days, so low-res? I'm guessing it is because of yield/cost issues.

There's no demand for high resolution displays on a desktop.
Resolutions on LCD's can be much, much higher than their desktop counterparts. Some 15" laptop LCD's can easily achieve resolutions only atainable by 19" CRT's. But the desktop LCD counterpart's are stuck in the doldrums simply because people don't use their computers at that resolution. And it's important to optomize the apearance of the native resolution.
Not to mention the horrendous amounts of deadpixels it would add.
Indeed. People have to keep in mind that from web user logs that the most common resolutions used by people are 1024x768 (50%) and 800x600(35%).Originally posted by: FishTankX
