No matter what type of computer user you are, you know that one of the most important components you will ever have to buy is a monitor. While the advent of HDTVs has meant that quite a few users are now using their televisions as de facto computer monitors, there is nonetheless a huge market out there for bigger and better LCD computer monitors. Some companies have pushed the size up while not increasing resolution and while this may result in cost savings, consumers get less than optimal picture quality. On the other hand companies like Samsung have continued to expand the boundaries of computer displays by releasing extremely high resolution, large surface products in the 24” and larger size bracket. These monitors are so large they can in many instances substitute as a television albeit without a built-in tuner but with sometimes stunning picture quality. With the harem of new connector options on the market like HDMI and the upcoming Display Port we are seeing many of these monitors include options that have only until recently been available solely on high-end televisions. All these options and the constant vying for consumers’ attention and ultimately money, has meant the display market has been extremely competitive from day one and is no less now.
