Dear list members,  
  
 Though my question was less relevant to the toolbox, I think it was  
the one most audience here would be interested in.  
 It's about the monitors. We used to use CRT monitors for stimuli  
presentation. But it became less and less in the market, because more  
people switched to LCD. Besides this, CRT monitors would induce more  
noise in EEG or neurophysiology recording. But visual scientist did  
not switch to LCD monitor because its poor timing.  
 However, i recently read some advertisement of new type of TVs,  
which advocates high refresh rate and reaction time .... I wish to  
know whether someone here had tried these with TVs for stimuli  
presentation. I would appreciate if you would like to share the  
experience.  
 Thanks a lot!
