Re: LCD monitors

I wouldn't use the speakers because I have a subwhoofer with its own speakers.

After some more research, I found one problem that was mentioned about some LCD monitors in some customer reviews. A few people complained of "burn out". For example, one guy said that he left his computer on for about a half hour with a web browser open. When he came back and closed the window the webpage could still be seen slightly because it was on the screen so long. He says he sees this "ghost effect" after moving an icon on the desktop and after turning his computer on, he can see what he was last working on.

Has anyone noticed this with your LCD monitor and if so, how bad is it?
