Screen Size: LCD panel size indicates viewable size, as well. The measurement is made diagonally from one corner of the screen to the opposite corner. Given that users looking for the best overall computer monitors prefer higher values for screen size, the ASUS 19" LCD Monitor (VH198T) achieves 22% performance in this category. Screen Size	19 inches (wrong info?)

Given that users looking for the best overall computer monitors prefer lower values for price, the ASUS 19" LCD Monitor (VH198T) achieves 99% performance in this category. Price	$109.99 (wrong info?)

The ASUS 19" LCD Monitor (VH198T) achieves 88% performance for picture quality. Picture Quality
The ASUS 19" LCD Monitor (VH198T) achieves 100% performance for picture quality details. However, the current preferences ignore picture quality details in computing the rankings. Picture Quality Details	Backlight (wrong info?)
Pitch: The dot pitch rating of a computer monitor indicates how sharp the monitor's picture will be; smaller numbers are better. Given that users looking for the best overall computer monitors prefer lower values for pitch, the ASUS 19" LCD Monitor (VH198T) achieves 85% performance in this category. Pitch	0.25 millimeters (wrong info?)
Display Type	Flat Panel LCD TFT (Active Matrix) (wrong info?)
Max Resolution: Monitor resolution is measured in pixels and expressed as width by height. Most 17-, 18- and 19-inch LCD monitors are 1280 x 1024. Max Resolution	1440 x 900 (wrong info?)
Image Contrast Ratio: The difference (rarely exceeding 1000:1) in intensity between the brightest white and the deepest black. Image Contrast Ratio	35000 (wrong info?)
Image Contrast Ratio (Dynamic): Dynamic contrast ratio is considered a useful measure for LCDs that use LED-backlighting technology; for lamp-based LCDs, however, some experts consider it an irrelevant spec, because manufacturers arrive at the ratio through testing with the backlight off, which increases the ratio but is of no practical use because the monitor never will be as dark as it is with the backlight off. Image Contrast Ratio (Dynamic)	10000000 (wrong info?)
Response Time: This measures how quickly a pixel can change colors; the lower the milliseconds, the faster the pixels can change, thus reducing the ghosting or streaking effect one might see with a moving image. Given that users looking for the best overall computer monitors prefer lower values for response time, the ASUS 19" LCD Monitor (VH198T) achieves 92% performance in this category. Response Time	5 milliseconds (wrong info?)
Image Brightness: A measure of how much light a panel can produce, expressed in candelas per square meter (cd/m2). A measurement of 200 to 250 cd/m2 is sufficient for most tasks; 300 to 400 cd/m2 is better for movies and games. Given that users looking for the best overall computer monitors prefer higher values for image brightness, the ASUS 19" LCD Monitor (VH198T) achieves 20% performance in this category. Image Brightness	250 cd/m² (wrong info?)
Image Max v-view Angle: How far (to 180 degrees) you can move above or below from the center of the display before the image quality deteriorates to unacceptable levels. Viewing for yourself, as opposed to comparing specs, is the best way to determine whether the viewing angle is acceptable. Given that users looking for the best overall computer monitors prefer higher values for image max v-view angle, the ASUS 19" LCD Monitor (VH198T) achieves 88% performance in this category. Image Max v-view Angle	160° (wrong info?)
Image Max h-view Angle: How far (to 180 degrees) you can move to the side from the center of the display before the image quality deteriorates to unacceptable levels. Viewing for yourself, as opposed to comparing specs, is the best way to determine whether the viewing angle is acceptable. Given that users looking for the best overall computer monitors prefer higher values for image max h-view angle, the ASUS 19" LCD Monitor (VH198T) achieves 93% performance in this category. Image Max h-view Angle	170° (wrong info?)
