Future LCDs
Hand in hand with the gamers out there, rumors and wild speculation increase over the search for low response time monitors over 17”. It still does not look like we will see advancements anytime soon. Many folks have commented on Samsung’s secret “X” series of monitors, but we have seen absolutely no evidence of this product line and in our opinion, Samsung would probably not talk about future products without a press release anyway.AUO (the 16ms panel is most likely working on more 16ms LCD panels, but their production facilities may be limited for larger than 17” monitors). It seems to us that manufacturers will move more into the trend of refining their display modes to coax the most performance and colors out of the substrate. LG.Philips continues to pursue Super IPS, Samsung has been working on PVA, and several others continue to work on MVA. Hopefully our brief touch on LCDs was helpful. Stay tuned for our follow up on this article, which discusses the technical look at response times, MVA, PVA, IPS and TN.

#5 fixed it - sorry.#7 fixed that one too. Yeah rubbing pixels really doesnt do much good. I think NewEgg is going to be pissed when they find out I messed up their monitor pretty good.
#6 Say it aint so!! We want to be the only ones ;)

Rubbing the pixils does more good then harm then?<<<Personally, it seems that rubbing the pixels does more good than harm so continue at your own risk.>>>
Might want to fix that one

On page 6, where you talk about the cables in the picture (the sentence right below the picture), shouldn't the good cable be the *upper* one or am I missing something?KristopherKubicki - Thursday, September 4, 2003 - link
Yeah, new editors and kind of a revamped AT staff. We went through a lull period after we lost Matthew, but now we have some really good writers and a lot of great content to write about.Just wait till Computex and COMDEX - 3 and 4 reviews per day sounds about right.
