Hi.
I'm in the market for a new flat screen monitor and would really like some opinions on whether an analogue or digital screen would be best for me.
I have seen the Acer V243W - 24'' which seems nice (analogue), but should I pay more for digital?
Please help me to decide on what type I should buy.
Thanks,
TC

At the native resolution, 1920x1200, you'll probably see no difference. At non-native resolutions, digital is better. Also HDCP content, such as Blu-ray movies, cannot be played on an analog monitor.

Hasn't HDCP been cracked yet? Where are the 14-year old Norwegians when we need them?
