    Did you get the idea of this "sample and hold display technology that causes retinal blurring"? Response time has nothing to do with it. I have studied and tested this issue and it is true.

    For me link has some flawed logic (including completely incorrect data about LCD response times) and is from proponents of 120Hz monitors.

    I dont know if this is new information to anyone but it was to me.

    Thing is that a normal computer monitor could not show sharp motion. This issue (blurred motion in computer LCD) is caused by eye/brain phenomenom called: "sample and hold display technology that causes retinal blurring"

    Due to this one can not see all the benefits of 60P sharp motion with computer monitor. Even if response time would be 0ms the situation would be the same. Scanning or stobing backlight technique is the only way to fool eye/brain to see all the details in movement. See explanation:

    @DrDave I have of these and love it. Mine is matte though due to my environment

    I have to say I still like very much my $300 27 inch IPS monitor from Korea (there is a long thread on this), and the newer ones look good as well. Without the calibration, it would be useless. I always preview stuff on the TV, also calibrated.

    Best monitor is one with proper calibration :-)
    Good plasma usually show more lifelike image with less noticeable noise and such.
