Don't have the answers to all your technical questions. But I have posted this a couple of times for others and I am still VERY happy with mine. The LCD I have had the top rating from MaximumPC magazine when I was looking for them. Here is the link to the one I have. IT ROCKS!! I love it. Cogi has the big brother to mine and also reports great success with it.
