It's all change in our top five tests this week, with a series of slightly older monitors taking your fancy.  Our guess is that some of these vintage editions are on sale right now, prompting some of you to come back and check them out.

In the coming week, we'll be covering more of Samsung's woes with panel switching (and looking at some problems from Sony too), and running some technical tests on the iPad's impressive display.

This Friday, we'll be looking at the colours, contrast ratio and viewing angles on the iPad to see if it really is up to being an e-book reader
