    Does anyone know the response time for the WXGA+ screen for the m15X?
    I tried looking on AW website, but no news on the topic.

    Cheers.

    LG Flatron M2294D is also one to look at. Im sure the samsung will perform well in games with hdmi. But I think there are a few other screens to look at for gaming, unless youre looking to also play tv shows on ur computer.

    Also I would look in 120hz screens that play with the new Nvidia 3d glasses. If youre interested in that new technology :p

    Sounds pricey, but good.. Oh well. I'll give the t220hd a shot and see how it goes.. I think its about time I upgraded from my Mitsubishi 930sb diamond pro.
