Hi,
Just wondering if hexus or anyone else you guys know has done a LCD monitor 'round-up' or something. Because I just looking around at the moment (not gonna buy one for a while, obvious lack of funds), and have been told by a few people that some of the retailers and manufacturers semi-lie about the specs of their screens, like with the response time, some of them measure grey-to-grey time, not black-to-black, so they get a much lower (sometimes half) response time. Also, I know the higher contrast ratio means a sharper/clearer picture, but if 800:1 is a good ratio, what difference does it make if you go above that?
All I'm looking for really is a typical hexus review - whether hexus has done one doesn't really matter, as long as they have covered the things I want to know in typical hexus style =) - with good amount of stats and figures, and most importantly, that they have some their own testing on each monitor. Doesn't really need to be a big round-up, just enough so I/we can get a good idea of what to look for.
So if any knows of a site/review please post a link, if I've missed one that Hexus have done I apologise, but I did look and couldn't find one.
Thanks in advance,
Piga.
[Edit: I'm also a bit lazy and don't want to spend (and don't have) hours looking at/reading all the web sites and reviews I'd need to, to get a good picture of where LCD monitors are today]

Run through the most recent comparisons, most of them show you pretty pictures, or have sections on what the specs mean 

tis a shame scan does not have the 20 inch version
they looks really good and the price is mint !! ill be getting one definatly

), there is an "ISO Standard" which allows these manufacturers to give you a monitor with up to 4 dead or stuck pixels. If its 4 or less, you are not eligable for a replacement no questions asked. You would likely be able to get a free repair, or a refurbished replacement monitor. But getting a brand new one sent to you, for having a few stuck/dead pixels, seems to be unlikely.
