More expensive than what? A 14" monitor? No kidding.

90Hz refresh is bullshit. What counts is horizontal scan rate because
there is no reason to run faster than 70 Hz refresh. Except for interlaced

but that translates into 45 Hz refresh for the complete frame. This will
flicker just like television.
