Q. Hi,
Anyone can please give me some recommendation on a very good 30" lcd monitor. Price is not important as long as it worths it.
The ones I have found on the web are Dell, Apple, Samsung, HP and Acer.
Thanks!

A. For Graphics work our Studio uses Apple's Cinema Displays. The dot pitch is .250mm on the 30" LCD which is really fine for a 30" display and the screen supports 14ms refresh which is good enough even if you're capturing or editing fast action video scenes. The maximum resolution supported by the screen is 2560X1600 so you'll need a video card to match. The downside to such high resolutions is that you may need to get prescription glasses because everything is so small. We use the GretagMacbeth Eye-one to colour calibrate our screens which is a big plus.
The thin border also gives your eye the impression that the screen is larger than it is. Having said that when you sit less than 3 feet away from a 30" screen it is big!
If you don't own a Mac you'll also need a MAC DVI to PC DVI convertor and you'll also need a graphics card that can support such high resolutions. The NVidia 7600GT, 7900 and 7950 cards all support up to 2560X1600 but the 7600GT only supports it on one of the two DVI connectors! The ATi graphics cards also support such a high resolution but I'd start with the X1800 range and go up from there. ATi deliver better overall quality picture for 2D surfaces than Nvidia but you'd need to read a few reviews and see them running side by side to know there was a difference!
Hope this helps

Flatscreen TV vs LCD monitor?
Q. I have a great offer for a 40" LCD (NEC) PC monitor that I want to use for TV, games and DVD player. I have heard that PC monitor's actually have higher capabilities than an HDTV, is this true? (For high def I would need a tuner anyway, so I'm not worried that a PC monitor doesn't have a built in tuner). Your input is appreciated!
A. The only LCD monitors with "higher capabilities" than HDTVs are the 30-inch WQXGA monitors, which have 2560x1600 resolution. HDTVs top out at 1920x1080 (aka 1080p High Definition), which is what most computer monitors top out at as well.
So either one is fine, really, unless you want very high resolution, in which case you need a WQXGA monitor.
