Or more succinctly, if the W-LED backlight only now achieves what was possible before (with CCFL) what incremental benefit does the new back-light provide the user? Why should I care about a great leap forward for W-LED? On 21 Aug 2012, at 20:00, colorsync-users-request@lists.apple.com wrote:

Bascically, the new unit uses a White-LED backlight instead of CCFL and a more advanced IPS derivative with higher transmission (LG´s new LM270WQ3 AH-IPS Panel). According to LG (and EIZO), this new W-LED Backlight achieves the same Gamut as the WCG-CCFL of the LM270WQ2. That´s a great leap forwards for W-LED as up to today, W-LED typically only reaches sRGB (or even less) and the Adobe RGB gamut was only possible with WCG-CCFL or RGB-LED.

Raina's et al,

Sorry but I'm glazing over with acronym and model number overload. Is there a 'succinct' article or table that breaks down ALL of the differences, advantages and disadvantages of the the currently available technologies and options for displays. I need something to present to students that are still unconvinced of the 'ROI' on a good 'window' to their images. It always amazes me how much they will spend on a camera and then use a cheap monitor for viewing.
