Uhh i know next to nothing about lcd specs or much about them, i was considering one... and i saw this seems really cheap for a 19inch... and it says the response rate is 15ms, thats good right?

I sell there at work and haven't had a complaint about them. That is a pretty good deal. We sell them for $799.

do you get to use them? ever play a game on one? thats what im looking at.. a lcd for gaming but i guess ill be looking for another year or two

Actually you add the rise time and fall time together, so it is really 25ms response time. Which is still pretty good.

I have played UT2K3 on it and it looked pretty nice. Most of the people I have sold them to use them for games and have liked the quality of them.

Anything under 25ms refresh rate will yield no ghosting. My 17" LCD has a 25ms refresh and I game on it all the time (CS, Battlefield, C&C Generals).

CS rocks!

hmmm all those games run nice with no ghosting or flickering or anything? hmm...

LCD have come along way. A few years back my company paid $6000 for 20" NEC LCDs. They had ghosting problems from hell. If you left a window open for more then ten minutes, then moved the widow you could see the outline of the window where it use to be.

Fast forward 4 years, now you get a 19" for $550, that rocks.....got to love technology......lol
