The good, the bad, and the flat

Article Abstract:

Vendors displayed striking new products at the 1998 Flat Panel Information Display Conference that showcased rapid advances in technology, but the units remain prohibitively expensive for the vast majority of desktop users. The market for flat-panel displays is expected to grow 16% over the next five years while the CRT market grows only 5%, but much of the growth is driven by traditional sources of demand, such as laptops and specialized equipment. LCD desktop displays are approaching the quality of CRTs and offer screens as large as 20 and 22 inches. At the show, NEC demonstrated its 20-inch Multisync LCD 2000, which provides resolutions of up to 1,600 by 1,200 pixels with 16.7 million colors but is priced at a whopping $7,999. CRTs will continue to dominate the desktop in the foreseeable future; one analyst estimates that flat-panel displays will still cost three times as much as comparable CRTs in 2001.
