I'm curious to know what "CCFT" stands for even though the rotation/pivot feature now sometimes found with LCDs seems to me so desirable a feature for photos that I'm not much interested in the Cinema displays. >Sony displayed a LCD TV using white leds at the 2004 CES.

My workstation is in a corner in what was meant to be a dining area between the kitchen and the living room, so I can see my monitor from both rooms. If the monitor were, in effect, my TV too, I could get rid of the TV. So I'm also curious to know whether one screen could likely double as both monitor and TV, w/o any sacrifice in quality, sometime soon. I've never seen HDTV but suppose it could be better than TV but still not as good as the better computer monitors. >Getting back to CCFTs, they really should last a long time if driven >with care. The with care part separates the men from the boys. This went over my head. I do tend to pamper my gear, but I don't know what that would amount to in this case. It has occurred to me to use a (Photoshop) "palette monitor" for almost everything else too and reserve an "image monitor" for working with photos and maps. I'd appreciate any advice about any of this. -- Sam ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
