this is from http://www.directron.com/lm143sb.html the dot pitch is not .264 its .279 does that make a lot of difference? Im not keen on the whole dot pitch thing anywaysI emailed the website above as to its response time, I will post back when I get more info. L8er
 
262,000 colors. Aren't those like the "minimum level to be visually pleasing to the human eye" or something? Because the rest of the *^$%^% specs on that monitor are REALLY good.


This is was norcent sent me...curious...i've already sent a follow up mail:




Dear Sir,

property whats norcents email addy? I still wanna know response time. GEESE they couldnt give us all the info in the one email, such lazy workers.



EDIT, as to your question on the amount of colors thats not enough to make a good projector most EVEN older lcd projection panels have 500,000 + colors, Look for at least 1 million.( for a new monitor that is)
 
Ok here's the whole scoop on the Norcent direct from Norcent...not a bad deal at all!!! I think we may have found a winner:

The contrast ratio is 250:1 and dot pitch is .264. I’m sorry for any inconvenience, I’ll have walmart to change it asap

>So the 460:1 contrast ratio and .264 >dot pitch numbers are correct?
>Thanks.
 
I dunno, Its usually kinda a trade off, For example,when LCD projection panels were all the rage, as soon as say panels jumped from 640 x480 to 800 x 600 When resolution increased contrast decreased, My proxima 9210 ( lcd projector) is 16 million colors and 150-1 contrast, But now a days ( years later) you will find 3,000-1 contrast ratio and 2-4,000 ansilumens, granted the projectors of that quality will be ungodly priced in the 9-20,000 price range. So in short, manufacturers make dumb decisions.
 
Ok here it is:

30msec, and 40(max)

So all together we have:

Response: 30 ms (40 max)
Nat. REs: 1028x768
pitch: .264
Contrast: 250:1
Price: $179.99 Walmart

Not bad at all.
