Hi
I am looking for advice before buying a new monitor. I have a
Relisys 17" TE770 CRT monitor at present. Due to an imminent house
removal, I need to cut down on space so thought I may as well use the
excuse to buy a reasonable 19" Flat panel monitor. I have a Nvidia
GEForce FX5200 AGP card with 128MB of memory. I use it for general
surfing, word processing and picture editing in Photoshop CS. What
should I be looking for and will my present graphics card be good
enough for a new monitor. I am very happy with my present setup but
need to lose the massive CRT display. Any help appreciated.

Ian

Where in the world did you ever get THAT idea? The switching
time of plasma pixels is in the microsecond range...in terms of
response time, they're roughly equivalent to CRTs (and use very,
very similar - almost indistinguishable, in fact - phosphors). The
main difference is that, since they're NOT raster-scan devices,
plasma panels don't suffer from the CRT's flicker problem.
