"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I am pretty damn happy with my Samsung 17" 172X. :)
Funny thing is that most of those online reviews about this model received 25ms version of it and only very few mentions about it in their reviews. :) (learned about it afterwards) The real 12ms retail version has NO ghosting at all. :)

Since they mention ghosting in that article, it is 25ms model as well even though specs say it is 12ms. Didn't read it through so they might actually mention that somewhere.

I've read up everywhere I can about that screen, and the 16ms/25ms story is - as far as I can tell - this: Early (test?) models may have been 25ms, but HP rapidly changed to 16ms panels. However, the documentation on HP's site or in the manuals (couldn't figure out which) wasn't updated until much later. Thus the confusion.

However, HP has stated that all those models are 16ms.

Similar confusion as with Samsung 172X then. :) (retail is 12ms, reviewed pre-retail models were 25ms)

[color=66ff00]The thing I love about HP is if that thing ever breaks, do they send you a shiny new one? No they don't. They'll send you a 'refurbished' one.

That has been their long running practice with CD-writers and the like anyhow.
