Shedding ever changing colours,
in the darkness of the fading night,
Like the river joins the ocean,
as the germ in a seed grows
We have finally been freed to get back home.

They bug my eyes for most everything I've used them for and gaming is no exception.
It'd be nice if they had a higher refresh rate than 60hz...

I only ever use lcds at home anymore, do their really compact size... I don't have any problems whatsoever with either of the two that I have... whether I am gaming or working or chatting or just whatever...

My Dad owns one and Ive played Call of Duty amongst other games on it from time to time, ghosting is noticably only very rarely, his LCD runs at 75Hz if I recall correctly. I believe his is an LG if branding matters to anyone.

I'm almost completely convinced my next monitor will be LCD now -- my CRT is starting to go fuzzy on me and those LCDs are just awesome.

Biggest trick is to go to the stores and really shop around, and do lots of homework because there are DEFINATELY some really crummy LCDs on the market hehe.
