Hi Wolfie,
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>Do you think one can decently manipulate pictures (for screen/web-use) on such a gadget ?? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
If you have gone to the expense of buying an 18" flatscreen, you obviously either have far too much money (and should feel compelled to share some of it with me) or you have done your homework and already know the answer! You're just bragging! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
LCD screens are brighter but with more contrast than CRTs (i.e. less colour loss). They are sharp and clear and, of course, allow you to reclaim acres of formerly lost desk space. The obvious ones to go for are Philips, Sony, etc., the CRT brands most pros are using already. But beware, there are also unbranded LCD models on the market which I wouldn't touch with a bargepole. I was asked to review a 15" one which was more grainy than the floor of my chicken run, but at the low price my client bought it anyway - since his most-used apps are Outlook Express and Word, I guess this didn't make much difference to him (bloody LUDDITE)!
IMHO anyway...

If someone tried to make me dig my own grave I would say No.
