RE: Way cool LCD AV/PC monitor

["Kenneth Watt" <kennwatt@xxxxxxx>]

Is that the new one from LG then?

I was in PC World yesterday and bought a new TFT for my server, that
really tidies the place up, for =A3349 15" with onboard sound. They
had a
cheaper one but the picture was c**p IMO, so I paid the extra =A350 for
the one that looked decent, even SWMBO is impressed by the fact that it
is neat and tidy ;-)

Question: has anyone used these flat panels for gaming and if so are
they any good since Paul mentions this one hooked up to a PS2? I was
told that they were not much cop for this due to the refresh rates.
