Good read, I enjoyed it . One question I have about monitors and Tv sets regarding High Definition is whats the difference between a HD tv and a HD LCD monitor? Being that LCD's have better resolutions than tv's do, does that technically make a 24" monitor HD? Maybe you could throw that in there as well, the difference between HD tv sets and monitors that can display high resolutions

Will do. I have slacked off on the updating. i have 5 pages of updates coming.

To answer your main question though, yes a 24" LCD monitor is HD. A HD Monitor can support higher resolutions than a TV can. For instance a 24" monitor can handle 1920 x 1200 resolution (2304000 pixels) vs a 1080p TV's (1920 x 1080) 2,073,600 pixels.
