Widescreen TFT Time

[pariah]

Noticed a load of 23" TFT's going around the grand - subgrand mark (philips, jvcetc, all with inbuilt tuner, scart, vga). These are all native widescreen (1280 x 768), anyone had experience of using one for a main monitor? Another question is how far away can you sit before you cant read the text (internet for example)? Im not looking at any specific model of TFT at the min, just looking at anything £1100 or under.

Cheers all

I'm on a widescreen TFT at the moment on my laptop. Widescreen is the way forward as it's more 'navtive' as so to speak. This one runs at 1280x800. If it's 23" then why does it only support 1280x768?

Dabs have a 30" noname Widescreen LCDTV for just under 1100 I think. Looks the absolute dogs danglies and performs great. Some guy on Ocuk posted a review on his, made lots of readers jealous

Because it's mainly designed to be a television, so windows performace will be dismal..

That LCD is actually made by Medion and seems to be excellent for that price (think it has a 16ms response time aswell), they do a 23" Version for £650 aswell - but that is not as feature packed and is 25ms repsonse but still inlcudes tv tuner.
