The L767 has 25ms Samsung PVA panel.
I have used one for a year and it is a beautiful
monitor, but not very good for fast moving graphics... :-\

Eizo is introducing the new L768.
Last generation Samsung PVA panel with 1000:1 contrast
and 178° viewing angle.

According to my experience with L767 and other LCDs...
You can use it for home and semi-pro photoediting,
but CRTs remains more suited for this task thanks to
smooth and realistic colors.

Eizo make also the CG series color calibrated LCDs...
but I think you don't like the price...
;-)

Ask me about L767 if you want...
