Title: Do you have an LCD? Which one?
Post by: Havok on October 04, 2007, 06:26:45 pm

I'm in the market for another LCD for my latest cab - I'm thinking 20" non-wide screen. Which models do you have out there, and how well do you like them? The main thing I'm concerned with is image quality, if it remembers the last input, and if you can disable all the notifications that LCD screens like to pop up...

Thanks!

I have a 4:3 LG. 2ms, and fits all your needs except that its only 19" (I'm using it in bartop). This was the size I needed, but I also think it was the largest 4:3 I saw at any regular stores. I bought it on sale at Circuit City for 199 bucks.
Doesn't seem to have any problem with the low resolution, perhaps the tinted bezel helps. No blurring or anything you used to see on the old LCDs.

I've posted pics before, but here are a couple to just give you an idea.
