15" imac

I plan to buy an imac soon but I'm not familiar with LCD displays. Will fast motions, such as those found in games, cause blurring? If the physical screen is 15" then what is the actual viewing area? I'm thinking 15" will be enough for me considering the screens position can be modified to move closer. Oh well...I may wait till after macworld to see what is announced. A 17" screen would be great too. Although more expensive.

    The viewable area on LCD's is the size of the monitor. So yes it would be 15". Get the iMac, you'll love it. The only reason I bought a Quicksilver tower is because I wanted the option to upgrade the video card and to buy a bigger display (17" ASD).

    when you drag windows around you will see blurring, however with games and such you don't see any blurring.
