Who needs an LCD display? Well, if youre like me, having one huge hunk of a monitor sitting on your desktop is just not feasible. Not only does it take up desk space, but theres just simply no need for all of the physical mass, right? Welcome LCD displaysthe computer monitors of the present and future. From year to year these computer peripherals tend to get smaller and thinner in size with twice the power and benefits. Well, stay on the look out for more to come because I am certain that our current flat monitors have not reached their journeys end yet. An LCD (which stands for liquid crystal display, by the way) works much differently than your CRT, mostly because they dont project light, and therefore use much smaller units during display. Lets talk about the benefits of a flat monitor: 1.) They produce less heat 2.) They use less electricity 3.) Because they use digital signals, the display is sharper and clean 4.) Speakers are generally included in the screen, so you dont have to worry about cluttering your desk with speakers anymore When deciding on purchasing your LCD display, be prepared to spend at least $200, and definitely look into a 19 inch display (as opposed to a 17 inch). From Sams Club to Sears to Circuit City, its certain that youll find the display you need for the price you want to pay. Just do a little comparison shopping, and pat yourself on the back for making a purchase that will clear up your desk clutter and save you some space! |
