Best LCD choices for that proper AMI monitor feel in 2009.

[Cammy]

Unfortunately all the information I listed on my YouTube video is all the information that is available with this TV! I have also tried searching for them, but to no avail.

It was purchased about six months ago from Coles or Woolworths (some Australian food supermarket) during some special deal, for $299AU. My friend's mum bought it for her caravan, since it's an all-in-one DVD/TV/Monitor sollution, and it's also 12v compatible for running off a car battery. Since she never goes on holidays though, I asked if I could borrow it just for a few days to test it out, and that was a couple of months ago (ssshhh).

I dread the day I have to give it back, because I haven't found anything as awesome as this screen anywhere since.

It's from China, like nearly everything sold in Australia, so maybe that's where we need to look.

I've got one of these: http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?InvtId=2001FP-R&cpc=SUGG that flicker fixes on composite/s-video.
Better than nothing, but not as good as Indivision/2320.

There is certainly nothing "better then nothing" shabby about your Dell. Still S-IPS (LM201U04) that only requires some help of proper calibration as with most of the Dell monitors. Don’t  loose it with your later wide visitors. That aspect ratio will always be very handy and most useful in many fields of creative work. If you can’t borrow some calibrator from your friends, dedicate a small visit to this site.

I wasn't very successful in finding more info on the 19" MXT LCD1904HDD either.

Previous (almost) equivalent of Cammie’s model but as CRT is MXT MTV140D

Referent design originates from Philips but found in previous Siemens and other EU names as well. Interesting, Will look into this at later date to obtain more information about MXT name.

By now, I think it is safe to say this monitor will not leave your Amiga premises for sure

Don't be like that Cammy,

From finer side of manufacturing bliss, your land still offers uncompromised results from great pioneers in their own fields :

S&S , F , Dun ,KM just to name a few.

Oh, no, the monitor itself is great, I'm a big fan of 4:3 flatscreens, I don't own a single 16:9 that isn't on a laptop.  The "better than nothing" aspect is the flickerfixer for composite/svideo, mostly because those signals aren't nearly as sharp as VGA, but it's nice on my 1200T (which doesn't have an Indivision.)

My younger brother and a son of one of my friends got into the retro-computers, specially into the Amiga and ST bec we showed these systems to them.

Actually they found them more interesting than PC's, they know they're limited, but you know, they have some essence PC's don't. I've even seen kids playing with C64's bec their fathers have one at home, and they like it. "It's not a PS3, but games are fun" under their own exact words.

I guess this also depends upon the size of complete available desktop tapestry. Above 20" I tend to be less nitpicking with wide. But still keep in my present PC setup at least one 5:4 candidate
