Some Interesting Info on LCD Monitors
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) monitors are fast replacing tube-based monitors because they take up so much less space. They have other advantages as well. If you are considering switching to LCD for your business, here are some of the facts.
As was mentioned above, LCD monitors take up a whole lot less room than their tube-based cousins (CRT). The LCD technology is one of the things that made laptop computers possible in the first place, but they are now a fully entrenched and popular addition to the desktop community of electronics as well. Because they don't use bulky tubes, LCD monitors are about 80% smaller in size and weight than the CRT. This means they can be easily backed up against a wall and take up noticeably less amount of desk space.
LCD screens do not produce nearly as much radiation as CRT monitors because they are not refreshed as often and do not radiate out toward the user. In order to refresh the screen, the pixels on the screen alternate between off and on and so you do not get the eye strain associated with the constant "flickering" that happens with CRT monitors.
LCD models use significantly less power in order to maintain a good image and clear resolution. One of the complaints of the first generation of LCD screen is that it wasn't as clear as its counterpart. There have been significant improvements made on the technology since then making that complaint virtually obsolete. However, liquid crystal panels have fixed resolutions, and if they are being used in conjunction with a desktop, the computer will need to be configured to that resolution in order to maintain optimum clarity and color.
You will want to choose a resolution level based on the preponderance of the type of work you do on your computer. For example, if you work in an artistic type of industry and use a lot of specialty software for editing and imaging, you will definitely want to choose a higher resolution screen even though it will probably cost more. You will also want to get a larger screen in order to facilitate your workload.
If the applications in your business run more toward simple internet browsing, word processing, and other common office usage, then lower resolution screen would be more appropriate for those needs. The bottom line concerning resolution is that there is not good or bad, just better and best: it simply depends on the types of applications you are using.
