Q&A: How much is contrast ratio important in an LCD monitor?
Question by szhpaki: How much is contrast ratio important in an LCD monitor?
I am looking to buy an LCD monitor and I have found a variety of contrast ratios and sellers trying to boast about them. I have seen from 800:1 to 10000:1. Which one is better? What should I be looking for in an LCD monitor?

Answer by Mercuri
The higher the contrast, the more clear the picture will be. However, some contrast ratios are skewed because there is no definitive way to measure contrast ratio so some companies put numbers that don’t really mean anything.

Go to the office supply store and get a package of screen protectors for PDA (Palm-type) devices.
Cut one to fit your display and stick it on.

Answer by kg7or
In general, the LCD will have a brighter screen, will weigh much less, and will use less electrical power. It also does not have the image burn-in that can happen to a CRT or plasma display. Its downside is a limited viewing angle and a bit of blurring on fast action, such as a long pass in football. The only real advantage of the plasma set is a wide viewing angle. Its glossy screen also reflects light from your lamps or window sunlight; that’s much less a problem on LCDs.

XBR4 is a 2007 model. XBR6, XBR7 and XBR8 will not be released until later this fall. XBR4 MotionFlow (120 Hz) implementation can produce significant artifacts. The newer 2008 implementation of MotionFlow (in the W & Z series) is much improved, though it still can produce artifacts.

Why are there such silly rules for donating plasma?
Question by кяιѕтιηα ✯: Why are there such silly rules for donating plasma?
For example, on the BioLife Plasma Services website, it states that if you have acne or a mental disorder, you may not be eligible for donation. Is there something in your plasma that could pass these conditions onto someone else? If not, this seems to be a bit extreme and picky.
