  Half-right...  I believe the components  quality  is  the  same
between  the  monitors, but it DOES matter which monitor you buy.
Thhe resolution is a BIG difference.  A difference you may or may
not  be  attuned to, but can end up giving you a head-ache in the
end.
  It's all in how the components are put together, and which ones
they  use.  I wouldn't have anything against buying a KMART brand
monitor if, when looking at the resolution, scan lines, and other
factors,  it  was comparable to another monitor that I didn't get
head-aches while using.
  Usually, however, the cheaper  the  monitor,  the  less  design
work, and less expensive parts went into building it.
