> response time - lower number is better(16ms or lower for gaming)

"Response time" is too general a term to be of any use, seeing as most 
manufacturers cottoned onto the fact that most home users were judging 
LCDs by that factor - and came up with new and alternative methods of 
measuring it. It's perfectly possible for a 10ms monitor to be slower 
than a 30ms monitor...

The only response time that matters for gamers is the gray to gray time, 
but manufacturers do not generally advertise it on their products as 
most home users are not capable of comprehending the difference.
