LCD review/ questions

Dont give up on LCD's because your gatways died, there have been many reports of problems with every model of gateway LCD.

I dont know anything about the sceptre but the samsung 226 is a good 22 inch panel as long as you dont get a "C" panel, samsung is now ONLY using an "s" panel, meaning one of their own which is a good thing for sure.

I would do some ressearch before buying sceptre, see what kind of panel is being used as sceptre does not manufacture Lcd panels. I would recommend lcd's with AU optronics, samsung or lg panels in them..
 
Heh, its next to impossible to swear off LCDs, the monitor makers have almost embraced it exclusively. Although there are a lot of used CRTs out there if you can find one without any issues. :D

I really don't want to switch to LCD.. but I think I am going to take the plunge next month with the 26" Planar. I am scared shitless. lol. A thousand dollars is a hell of a lot of dough.. I hope I don't have a bad experience and get shell shocked. :p

But yeah, so some good research first.. Seems like LCDs have a lot of problems, but some more than others. It pays to take some time to really comb through the board.
 
I bought that monitor and loved it... until of course I realized it sucked.

ALL the dark colors had this dancing pixel shit with them that I still don't know the name of. I walked into a dark building in WoW and it was purple, so needless too say I returned my monitor. That's my only gripe, other than that it's nice.
 
so the it pretty much sucks ok then. They have the LG L196W at Best Buy and considering I work there I can get it for 209 out the door. I know LG is a better panel but somehow that just doesn't seem right to pay more for a smaller panel but It is better. I know what I posted was more but i have seen it hit 189 on newegg.
