YES, plus you want HIGH number contrast ratio otherwise the screen is going
to look faded.  800:1 seems nice, probably goes hand in hand with Response
time though, meaning great response, means great contrast.  last thing upon
maybe comparing 2 models, and going which to buy, would probably pixel size.
HTH.

As mentioned in a later post the Sony SDM-HS94P Xbrite is very, very nice.
12ms 800:1 though its somewhat pricey.  Looks more like a CRT than a LCD.

You may also want to consider the highest possible resolution.

Ended up with a Princeton 19"  with 800:1 contrast and 25ms....(it
seemed in my research that the higher contrast came with a higher ms
number?) Seems OK....

Have to tweak the brightness up a little for nite tracks over what
seems the best for day tracks.  If I want the better "ms number" I
would need to go to a 17".  I have 14 days to play with it and be able
to return it...   Any opinions appreciated...

IMHO without big $$ you cant find a good FP monitor right now, sock the
money away, buy cheaper tube type, for now.  8ms coming soon I read.
