AnandTech's intro to LCD monitors, defusing the heavy confuso-marketing speak that permeates the flat-panel monitor industry. I've decided to want a nice large flat-panel monitor on several occasions, and immediately retreated into my little hole after trying to read anything about them.

After an amusing confrontation with a Fry's salesman—I didn't want to, but I had to see one of these things actually do 1600x1200 to decide if I really wanted one—I now have a ViewSonic VP201s. No regrets, I love it.
