Author Getting back into sims....

Hi all,

Thinking of getting back into sims after several years away from Warbirds
and Air Warrior. Naturally things have moved on and I have a few zillion
questions.

But my main one is this:

Are today's LCD displays fast enough for good sim framerates? I'm thinking
of buying a new display and I'd like to go LCd if they work well enough.

thanks

Gregg

Some LCDs are up to the task. I have a Dell 2001FP with a 16ms response
time and it looks great in all the recent sims. There are smaller LCD
monitors with even quick response times, 12ms and lower.
