What are the advantages and disadvantages of a monitor?

Answer 1

Monitors, otherwise known as displays or screens, currently come in two formats: LCD and Trinitron ("the boxy thingy"). LCD pros: Flat, low radiation (as far as I know) LCD cons: displays can either come with or develop "dead pixels" - pixels that remain a solid color or display black, are very fragile - pressing the display surface is not "healthy" for the display Trinitron pros: deep color Trinitron cons: relatively moderate-to-medium radiation Both types of displays can suffer from "screen burn" - if an image is displayed for too long (several hours/days) it will permanently "burn" itself into the display and be visible at all times. Display technology is undergoing major research and development, and Plasma displays which feature very high quality are becoming cheaper and therefore more widespread. OLED (Organic LED) systems which feature extremely high contrast ratio (looking at something on an OLED is apparently not very different from seeing it in real life, as I've read) and although these are typically only found in MP3 players at the moment, they're being actively developed and will probably feature in TVs very soon (TV-sized displays built off prototypes of the devices already exist).

Answer 2

The computer takes in information in the form of computer language and numbers (which can't be understood by people not trained to read it). The computer converts it into a visual representation which is displayed via the monitor. You can't take in any of the information a computer gives out without the monitor.

Answer 3

Monitors help you see what is on the screen. Without a monitor, you wouldn't be able to use your computer. One disadvantage to some monitors is the fact that they can be too bulky.

Answer 4

An advantage of using studio monitors when making music is that they give a more accurate representation of your sound. A disadvantage is that they are expensive.

Answer 5

LCD monitors consume less power than other types of monitors. They are smaller and thinner and they weigh less. They can be moved around in ways other monitors cannot.

Answer 6

The principle advantages are that LCD monitors are much thinner and lighter than "conventional" CRT monitors.

Answer 7

If you're asking about using an LCD (flatscreen) or a CRT (the big old ones) an LCD is better as it has less glare, is better for your eyes and uses 60% less power.

Answer 8

bigger screen better graphics
