Poll - LCD or CRT monitorPosted By Jose Suro |
Hi Wes,
I buy about 10~12 computers and monitors a year and usually switch my personal one every 8~12 months. I could buy any monitor I want and the one sitting on my desk is a 22-inch Dell Trinitron. I could go into it in depth and all but two words say it best: Dot Pitch, adjustability. Dot Pitch gives you the definition, wide range adjustability gives you the best color correction and contrast, and at comfortable resolutions.
LCDs do not at this time match quality CRTs in price/performance.
And correct color only comes with a Spyder - believe me when I tell you I eyeballed it for years using Adobe Gamma and I couldn't believe how wrong I was when I stuck the Spyder on it. I calibrate my monitor every couple of weeks now.
Oh, I forgot, a quality graphics card goes without saying.
Best,
