[lolage]

As it has same resoloution to 20" is the quality going to be much worse than a 20"

Thanks, Ben.

With a 8800GTX you could probably get a 1920x xxxx screen. I'm gaming on a 20" 1680x1050 screen btw which has the same rez as the 22" I can see a pixel from about 75cm away, and my eyesight isn't that great. Probably similar in size to a very sharp pencil, full stop lightly pressed onto paper. The taskbar is about 8mm high.

Image is great on a 22. Think of it like this. Most HD 42' TV's only have 720p and they still look good. or When you had CRT TV's you didn't go for a 28' over the 32' because they both have the same Resolution.

28' over the 32' because they both have the same pixel count.

CRT doesn't have pixels.

So 22" is still good quality..?

That's like saying...cars-are they good quality?
AFAIK the 22" use TN panels, so have own pros and cons, wheras 20" and 24" are different panels again. Not being monitor expert I don't know, only have two PC LCD monitors, a 17" LG, 20" Philips, and 40" Samsung LCD TV.

Does this screen offer aspect modes, philips has stretch keeping oar, oar, and stretch.
