Cheap LCDs: Going, Going, Gone?

The $300 15-inch flat-panel display may disappear as demand outstrips supply.

Buying Tips

With so many established and no-name brands of LCD monitors vying for your dollars, it pays to do a little research. Rhoda Alexander of Stanford Resources-ISuppli offers some tips:

  • Inspect the LCD in person. Low-end units often lack some features.

  • Check the field of vision. On low-cost LCDs, the display can be difficult to read if you're not directly in front of the screen.

  • Check for dead pixels. Most displays have a few, but don't buy a unit with clusters of them.

  • Check the technical support and warranty. Top brands offer up to a three-year warranty.
