Don't take my word for it, I don't know if the technical term is indeed sharpness. What I mean is that if I scroll through text fast, for example, I can notice that the thin letters become thicker and a little blurred, which is the same effect I can get while sitting still by turning down one notch in the sharpness setting, if I'm not mistaken. I don't even have it installed right now to check it. I'm leaving it to my secondary PC. The huge size is amazing for reading stuff and viewing stuff, you get all my compliments in this regard, but I can't avoid noticing the very subtle "blurring" in the games, which isn't like the old ghosting, no, they got that one solved alright, but it still makes simulators feel a bit eerie.

You can't really notice anything when things are moving really fast in a colorful game, but when they move just fast enough, not too fast and not too slow, you can feel that something's wrong.

[quote=TteFAboB]I got this (<- link) recently and it disappointed me after hearing so much hype about LCDs.

It doesn't ghost, it just looses one notch of "sharpness". It's extremely bright, which should make it last long enough to be worth the price, I hope, but I still prefer my CRTs because they just look better.

Is the 226BW a cheap, crappy, outdated LCD or something?[/quote
