    Quick computer monitor question

    Just got a new computer and I need a new monitor for it. Am I better off with LCD or LED? Being used in an office with overhead fluorescant lights.

    There is no difference between the two as far as the quality of the image on the screen.

    Unless you're watching a lot of HD movies on it, or playing a lot of games with intense graphics, you won't be able to tell the difference. Get the one that fits best on your budget and available desk space.

    No freakin' way am I going that big Wait a minute, did I just say that?

    I ended up getting the LED simply because it was energy star and the LCD was not. Thanks for your help.
