    Everyone's urging me to eat breakfast. Maybe I shouldn't have awoken so early.

    Look under display technologies basically with response time lower numbers equal less chance of artifacts, screen tearing etc.

    Yeah, response time is strictly related to ghosting and tearing and all that bullshit.

    Didn't you mention the other day that you use CRT for the response time but then again you do play a lot of fighters

    Games. Will be using it for my 360/PC. Obviously still keeping my 32" LCD TV as well, but I think I'll use the 22/23" primarily when I'm at my desk, possibly set up the 32" at the bottom of my bed for watching in bed.

    I play racing games and shooters mainly.

    Yeah, stopwatch program (or website) playing with a CRT and whatever your true monitor will be connected in mirror mode. Snap a photo with your fastest shutter speed.

    This is to measure how long the main monitor will take to show the updated time to the screen, not to show how the numbers look. Basically, when you do this, you want the numbers as close to the same as possible. Nothing like 15:65.238 on the LCD and 15:66.189 on CRT. When that happens, you have a lot of input lag and your game will take almost a full second to show what your mouse or controller just did.

    This is the desk I had my eye on. More than enough room for a laptop and a monitor on there.

    Unless you go to college, in five years, you'll want to go back for one reason or another.
