The best review site<\/i>.<\/p>\n
A reader kindly pointed me to a UK site which has the best LCD screen reviews – or more specifically, TFT LCD screen reviews – that I have come across.<\/p>\n
It’s called TFT Central<\/a> (OK, no prizes for a catchy name) but the reviews focus on objective measurements rather than subjective pap – none of that “It looks great to me” rot.<\/p>\n That same reader mentioned that he had added a Hewlett-Packard LP2475w 24″ screen to his white iMac 24″ as a second display and mentioned that, if anything, the HP screen is possibly better than the one in the white 24″ iMac. High praise indeed. The maximum brightness of 400 cd\/sq.m. is identical to that of the white 24″ iMac – meaning brighter than you will ever want. It doesn’t hurt that the HP has height adjustment (are you listening Apple?) and a built-in 6 port USB hub. Are these boys thinking or what? Anyway, for those looking for better LCD displays for their photo processing, check out the site.<\/p>\n If this sort of thing turns your crank, check here<\/a> for an explanation of the different LCD panel technologies used – the iMac 24″ and the HP referenced above use the same state-of-the-art technology, named S-IPS or H-IPS. Which just goes to show how ahead of the market the 24″ iMac was when introduced in late 2006! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The best review site.
