LCD data is routinely published for LCD monitors. Laptop LCD screens,
though, have very little published data. You might look at
Sager/Alienware gaming laptops as a start, although I have no knowledge
that they document LCD performance. www.notebookforums might also have
information on notebook LCDs. Additionally, www.tomshardware.com and
www.anandtech.com have more technical reviews of LCD monitor performance
that provide background on what to look for, the manipulation of LCD
performance data for marketing purposes, and which LCD monitors test as
good buys. Sadly, this information will not help deciphering which
notebook LCD screen is good for gaming.
