TweakNews has put up their review of the Samsung Syncmaster 172MP 17" multifunction LCD monitor. This is a REALLY cool monitor!
- It's a fact that all monitor manufacturers have had to swallow like cheap cough medicine. CRT monitors consist of dated, inferior technology that is starting to be ignored for the power-efficient vibrant picture quality of the LCD monitor. To date, CRT monitors have been a big seller and the manufacturing process has been so refined that monitor manufacturers are making a financial windfall. Since the introduction of LCD monitors into the mainstream consumer market, companies are being forced to walk away from their comfortable CRT manufacturing process to develop, refine and create an LCD monitor line for the future. Any monitor company that doesn't do this WILL fail and become extinct within the next 5 years. Who will win the battle? I'm glad to say the consumer for once. The popularity of the LCD monitor is by far one of the booming sectors of the computer peripheral genres and competition is growing. With the inevitable result being affordable high quality LCD monitors, I am humbled to sit back in my recliner and let the competition begin.
