| Sounds right. Look at any LCD screen at its native resolution, and you can see the individual blocks that are pixels. Look at it at a different resolution, and you can still see them; that's why the picture anti-aliases. Look closely at a CRT and you may be able to see the RGB elements before you burn your eyes out.

| That's all very interesting, but please don't class the Cinema displays in the general class of 'LCD" screens. I have bought the new 20", and this model changes it all. I have worked on many types of screens, and as a designer, I only want the best. The 20" is perfect in size and resolution, and will compare to any top of the range CRT. Its more of a different method of displaying the digital information into a viewing interface, and with the all digital LCD displays, you feel the difference in speed of display and non radiative emmisions. If you have a Mac, there is no better screen option. |

| The Powerbook 17 uses the same LCD display as the iMac 17" that I have. It is bright and has vibrant color, at least to my untrained eye. The display has an about 160 degree viewing angle side-to-side with no loss of quality. From top to bottom, the viewing angle is less. Also, I play FPS games on mine, such as Castle Wolfenstein, Ghost Recon, and Medal of Honor IN WIDESCREEN MODE!!!! with no noticeable motion artifacts. It's an excellent gaming display as far as I'm concerned. Doug

| Aren't you glad the latest batch of monitors is all digital instead of digital-analog-digital?
