Monitors other than the 2001fp?
 

I did an Ebay search for flat panel monitors 19" + and 1600*1200 + which produced this link.

One item that appealed to me is this one. In what ways would this be inferior to a 2001fp?

The reason for 2001fp being so damn popular is not beacuse its a TFT that is so much greater than others but beacuse most people getting them got them cheap via rebates and sales. And if you payed the lower price the price/performance ratio is very good on 2001fp. I would however not buy one at full price. Samsungs 213T cost about the same as an 2001fp at full price and is superiour.

What is the difference between LCD and TFT?

Thanks for the link. Leaving aside the technical stuff, which one is better, and by how much?

TFT is what is used today in almost all cases, and it is way better. When people talk LCD nowdays they realy mean TFT.
