For some time now it has generally been accepted that Samsung has been leading the LCD monitor industry. There is a lot of competition in this field but Samsung has done a good job of staying a bit ahead of their competitors, usually in terms of product specifications, but also design. With the ever increasing prevelance of LCD displays Samsung's advantage has been tougher to maintain and the margin by which they lead the industry has slimmed. In the 970P Samsung is going back to the principles which earned them their lead in the LCD market. This product is clearly an update to the acclaimed 193P, with a few twists thrown in, including a revamped design, unique connectivity, and an all new LCD panel. The 970P is by far the most interesting model of all those Samsung recently released- it will be turning more than a few heads year and probably setting the tone for many displays in 2006.
