Hi Armand,

if you spend any money, spend it wisely. Too cheap may be too expensive in the end – I myself don´t have enough money to buy cheap stuff!
The monitors in the 500$ range or below will most probably be equipped with PVA panels – good color, fast response time, miserable viewing angle. Especially in a 2 monitor setup you are bound to look at one of the monitors at an angle different from 90 degrees.
A good test: create a color patch with 2 primaries (red and green, red and blue ...) and view it from all angles. If the color shifts dramatically, the panel is a PVA and thus useless for halfways color correct graphics.
Secondly, I would never, ever buy a new LCD monitor without DVI. Image quality will degrade considerably.
I am very happy with the EIZO L997 (21") and the NEC Multisync 2090 (20"), both are equipped with IPS panels, both are 4x3 format, both have DVI and both are perfectly suited for graphics art work.


Best regards,
Karl Koch

Can anyone recommend a good and INEXPENSIVE 20" display (NOT the high-end products oft-discussed here)? In the "square" 4x3 format, not "wide-screen."

I had in mind a dual-monitor setup with two 1600x1200 displays side- by-side, connected to a G4 (the second monitor thru an ADC-DVI adapter). Actually, I'm not sure if Apple's resolution spec for this video card, the ATI 9000Pro, (namely 1920x1200) refers to total pixels supported, or to the pixels per monitor (in a dual setup), so I don't really know if I can even do this without a new video card...

Thank you,
Armand
