What size LCD do you recommend?

Expand Post »
I only use the computer to check email and chat. I don't play video games. Should I save money and get 15in or go ahead and get a 17in? People who have LCD's what do you recommend? Pros, Cons?

Not only that, but LCDs have serious drawbacks that keep them off my "recommended" list, including:

* High cost
* Backlight problems
* Dead pixels
* Inferior contrast ratios
* Slow response
* Fixed resolution
* Limited viewing angle

I'm waiting for the OLED displays to arrive...

Re: What size LCD do you recommend?

I would go with a CTR because my dad has a LCD and it sucks. Limited view and if any light is on it you cnt see crap and it was $400 so i would go with a CTR much better for the cost.
