so i've been using a crappy old LCD monitor for a while and thought it was time to upgrade. I now sit before a beautiful (and very sexy) 19" widescreen. the spec comparison between my new and old monitors is the best part though. lemme compare them side by side:

Hanspree HW191D....................Kogi L4BX
19" WS....................................14" square
16:10 ratio...............................4:3 ratio
5 ms response time..................50 ms response time
700:1 contrast ratio..................200:1 CR
32 bit color..............................24 bit color
1440x900 max res...................1024x768 max res
300 candles/square meter.........150 candles/sq meter
$200.......................................$10 on ebay

obviously my new monitor greatly beats my old one. the response time is the scariest part. i mean, 50 ms on the old one?? thats rediculous. the contrast ratio is also a *lot* better.

Hey, I have that very same monitor. I love it. Got it for 180 on newegg.
