Personal comments
The thing about the list that surprised this novice the most was the cost . . . of a monitor. A person can purchase a low-grade PC with a monitor for less than these monitors. But then again, I'm guessing that individuals looking for a fantastic monitor are using their monitor for more than the average computer user will use his for.
