I actually think that at the moment, digital display technology - without
wishing to open up *that* can of worms again - lags behind CRT display
technology, by a significant amount. Next time you go to the cinema, look
up
at the booth window and see if you can see film looping around the
ceiling.
If you can't, then it uses one of those new-fangled DLP video projectors.
Sit back comfortably with your popcorn, and wonder what's happened to

Many people in their daily use cannot see any lag or
ghosting from 19" and smaller LCD computer monitors.

If you can't actually see it, does it matter if it exists?
I can play 50 FPS video or games running at over 50 FPS on a
19" LCD computer monitor and not see any problems except the
obvious lack of contrast (but with CRT I am spoiled in this
respect, having bought Diamondtron tube based monitors for
the last few I used myself before switching to primarily LCD
usage).



I sure can, maybe my eyes are just better than average, there's those
"golden ear" audiophools I always thought were nuts, but maybe some of
them aren't as nutty as I thought. I've got a high end 20" flat panel on
my desk at work, it looks really good, but still not as good as the 22"
flat Trinitron CRT I have at home. Geometry is flawless, but the picture
doesn't look as smooth and clean as the CRT, it looks more "digital".

Hi James, goes it well ? Yes, that about says it. Perhaps it is just the
level of discernment, and it *is* just us, but that doesn't explain how my
wife thinks that the pictures are 'fuzzy' when anything is moving on them,
but makes no such comment when watching our 34" CRT Tosh TV, or the cinema
when it's projected filmstock, rather than a DLP video projector. She has no
technical axe to grind, as it were, and is interested in the picture only
for its entertainment value. Since I have had this high-end HP widescreen
LCD on the computer, which she also uses, she has made little comment other
than it looks "nice", which is true on the typically stationary pictures
that are normally displayed on it. I have, however, heard her comment that
the pictures on my son's (equally high-end) HP LCD are "out of focus", and
that would be typically when he is playing a game. Being non-technical, "out
of focus" is the best description that she can come up with for 'motion
blur'
