How about a Trinitron flatscreen? My Sony display is a Trinitron (it's even marked on the frontispiece), is not washed out, and achieving true color was very easy. The Samsung required a lot more fiddling to remove the yellow-green tint, but that's what color correction is all about. Heck, they're not as sharp and crisp and bright as my 17" Apple Studio Display was, but then they cost less (together, about the same original price for the ASD) while also being able to display 1600x1200 - not remotely possible on the ASD. Look, there are professional-grade graphics monitors (like the one linked above for $350 - which normally costs over $1000 - might I add), but you'll pay (and pay and pay). A pro 21"+ graphics monitor, unless you get lucky as above, will cost you over $1000. That's what I found when looking. Marque, you may be referring to a Flat Panel Display which uses LCDs. The original poster said that he wants to avoid them. BYS
