I am sorry that I keep asking this question, it is just obvious that you guyz know much more about the issue than i do, and I don't want to do anything foolish..
In any case I am still debating my lcd purchase (I want to order something tomorrow or on the 12th) . I was all set up to buy the hitachi, but then I read on another forum that the dell 1800fp can be bought for 480-500$ that's 75-95$ cheaper than the hitachi and 1" bigger.
All i want to know is if there is someone here that actually compared the two...as I said before, I am a casual player/movie watcher, and I use my computer 80-90% of the time for 2d applications. However, as i know myself, if i will start a divx movie and see ghosting I will not be pleased. To me it seems that if the it would be wise to save the extra 100$ and get a bigger screen. But i would like someone to confirm that the 1800fp is not a dud.
I read good reviews about the dell in cnet, anandtech.com and on other sites. However the dell spec are 350:1 contrast, 30 ms, and 0.28 pixel size....This dosent sound too good to me, but again I never owned an LCD....
Please help me decide...
