Why do laptops have displays with up to 1600x1200 LCD's (have had for a while now), but LCD's with those specs are extremely difficult to find on a regural PC?

How do you think the response-times of LCD's will improve in the future? Many have about 25ms response-time, the best being 16ms at this moment.

How do you see the pricing of LCD's evolve in the next few years?

What's the timeframe for the first OLED-displays?

Is 32bit RIMM technology already dead? Since only one or two motherboards support it and they arent exactly working out well, will Dual DDR just simply replace it. It would be one of the shortest lifespans of memory type for sure. Lots of people will likely be stuck with it.

32bit memory is not dead, at least not yet, the new SiS R658 supports it and it looks like Abit SI7 might produce one soon. Actually the Asus P4T533 was faily succesfull and a standard to beat in many benchmark comparisons.

I read that extra wide LCDs were going to replace the standard dementions sold today, what plans does Samsung have concerning up-and-comming dementions and what market sector will they be aimed at? Will they be competativly priced?
 
Hi Everyone,

We just posted the Samsung article. On page 3 we have several answers to your questions!

Ilmater's first post:
You're not serious, are you? 20" LCD for ~$300? Won't happen. Ever.

From what I gathered on the phone with Samsung, they want to have the price delta between CDT/CRT down to zero in 2005, and then they eventually expect LCD's to cost HALF that of CDT/CRTs today. So, I think it wont happen, ever, should really be - Wont happen, within 2 years?

Good read, only some minor problems.

The benchmark section was posted twice (within the same page)
The comparison table is a little confusing without cell borders.
In the same table, were the analog and digital tags switched? Because it looks like that for ghosting and streaking, the digital got a 3, and the analog, a 5. Or maybe I'm the one mistaken ...

On the LCD theme, I'd like to know if they can make curved screens. Matrox has a nice idea with 3 panels, but one very wide aspect screen with curvature would be nice in the same gaming instances. On the other hand for spreadsheets a flat screen would be better, but I'm still curious. A flexible screen that could do both would be ideal, but first questions first. Otherwise, just bring on nice wide panels.

 
I would like to know when LCDs will be as cheap or cheaper than comparable CRT screens.

I am also wondering if 16:9 ratio screens will be the standard in the future.
