Another flat panel question
I have been reading up on 19' flat panel monitors in anticipation of buying one. I am a little confused by the native resolution thing. I am over 50 years old and a little worried about text and picture imge size as I do a lot of online reading and a fair amount of photo processing. If I understand correctly the native resolution for flat panels is higher so that images are sharper but smaller. I went to a local electronics store to ask about this and noticed that all the monitors had pretty large icons. The sales person I was talking to knew less about it than I did, and were obviously no help. I currently have a 17' KDS that is looking really weak. My son is hygiene challenged and sneezes all over the key board and screen (really pisses me off) and has to be cleaned all the time. Are flat panels cool with frequent cleaning?
ANY advice or manufacturer recommendations would be welcome before I decide.
