Computer Monitor Information

Flat-panel LCD monitors require less space on your desktop, and many are no more expensive than CRT monitors. CRTs were once the preferred choice of graphic arts professionals, photographers and gamers, but even these groups have now moved into the LCD camp. See our report on LCD monitors for more information.
