News Samsung Syncmaster 957MB Monitor at PCStats.com

PCStats take a look at the flatness that is a 957MB Syncmaster monitor from Samsung:

"The rise in popularity of the flat screen CRT monitor has fully come to fruition. No longer are flat face CRT's significantly more expensive than their curved-tube counterparts, making them quite affordable, and quite worth getting. Flat face CRT's have a few advantages over their older counterparts which are not simply cosmetic. For starters, they offer better readability and resolution at the outer corners of the screen. The flat glass surface also tends to reflect less ambient light from the surrounding environment which makes the display more pleasant to look at in a well illuminated room. Each manufacturer has their own terms, techniques, and technologies for constructing CRT displays which have a 'flat' slab of glass up front. LG for example have advanced the technology to a point where both the inner and outer surfaces of the display screen are perfectly parallel, yielding arguably one of the best displays of all."
