And a lot of those monitors have 16ms response times... that's terrible.  I guess they're expensive cuz 4:3 LCD monitors are rare.

They are meant for graphics designing and produce high quality colors and sharp picture.

My Samsung 226W was priced $513, but because my granddad works there (yes, my grandfather works at a computer store) I got it for $256, which is cheap, even on the US scale.

Hookups ftw, amirite?

Yep, believe it or not every thing for the PC is not based on gaming alone.

Why would you want non-widescreen anyway?

Additionally, some of these are used for medical practices. However, if I was in the business of supplying people with such screens, I'd rather see some color bias charts.

I, on the other hand, am still a CRT man. Whatever LCD I hold up next to my HP P1120 is outclassed bigtime. When it goes will be the day I replace it.

Agreed. Colour matching my LCD to my CRT is near impossible, you just can't get as good colours on a non-CRT.
