Personally I want 1920x1200 resolution in a 20" or 22" screen, but nobody will squeeze this in.<br><br>Laptops can be bought with 15.4" widescreens that have this resolution, so why desktop monitors cannot stand to have a slightly more cramped dot pitch is a real conundrum.  The dead pixel / failure rates from the LCD fabs have got to be nearing zero by this point, since they have been in production for so long, so what gives?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Josh Warner]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 25th 2007 2:52AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on LG.Philips unveils 20.8-inch QXGA LCD for the medical realm]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</guid><description><![CDATA[Is that a skull of human or monkey?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Satish]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2007 1:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on LG.Philips unveils 20.8-inch QXGA LCD for the medical realm]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</guid><description><![CDATA[look at the teeth and headform.<br><br>should be pretty clear ;)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Blackster]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2007 1:30PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on LG.Philips unveils 20.8-inch QXGA LCD for the medical realm]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</guid><description><![CDATA[Now, I'm no expert on simian anatomy, but if there's one thing Dr. Zaius has taught me is that we should be careful throwing around potentially-offensive terms such as "monkey".

Has to have the ability to be calibrated etc.. most consumer based monitors will pass for the stat reads (ER), but final reads require a very high end monitor, the ACR has the specs in full detail if you care to search it out.  BTW, a pair of medical grade monitors will generally run 6-20K and that often doesn't include the super high end video card which can run from 1.5-5K...   The prices are high, but really, do you want your physician reading your X-Ray, CT, or MRI on anything but the best?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2007 2:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on LG.Philips unveils 20.8-inch QXGA LCD for the medical realm]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</guid><description><![CDATA[I expected the price to be high.

I'm asking a simple question in this blog which is why the Display manufacturers have stuck on 1920x1200 resolution on 24, 27, and 28 inch LCDs.  If I want higher resolution than that then I have to go for a 30" LCD which is twice the price.  I don't want a screen bigger than 24".  I also cannot live with 1920x1200 resolution.  Why is it if I ask why Display manufacturers cannot give us consumers (non Medical pros, standard Joes) a higher res 24" I'm all of a sudden dissing people that could save my life?  There's no need for smart ass responses like that.  I'm not questioning what kind of equipment Medical staff get.  I'm asking why...nah, I'm not going to repeat my question.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[apeguero]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 25th 2007 12:43AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on LG.Philips unveils 20.8-inch QXGA LCD for the medical realm]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</guid><description><![CDATA[Can you see what I'm thinking?!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MarcV]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 25th 2007 9:38AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on LG.Philips unveils 20.8-inch QXGA LCD for the medical realm]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</guid><description><![CDATA[This is your brain on Engadget.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[dataminer49er]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2007 4:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on LG.Philips unveils 20.8-inch QXGA LCD for the medical realm]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/24/lg-philips-unveils-20-8-inch-qxga-lcd-for-the-medical-realm/</guid><description><![CDATA[It is interesting that they should call it "highest resolution panel of its size", as I don't know of many 20.8" monitors!<br><br>That being said, I do know of the IBM T221/Viewsonic VP2290B.
