I have read baclit and non-backlit. Backlit LCD screens feel Much brighter
than the non-backlit and the threshold of the optacon must be turned down.
For the non-backlit LCDs, or if the light (actually it is a tube) is turned
off, the screen "feels" dimmer. Both are complletely doable. I regularly
read my 18.4-inch laptop screen with an optacon and there isn't a need for a
computer lens. An antiglare or glossy coating on the screen makes a
difference also. Personally, I find the antiglare screens easier to read,
but with an adjustment the glossy screens are just fine, too. Mine is a
glossy screen. I think they're becoming the standard now. Antiglare are
best for reading laptops in sunlight, whilst glossy is best for in-door
lighting. Some of the military laptops therefore use the traditional
antiglare screens.
You might consider getting a newer LED (Light Emitting Diode) display
monitor now that they are coming down in price. They are slim (which is the
opposite to what a girl should be),. Their quality is as sharp as crystal.

Subject: [optacon-l] Reading lcd displays
I am contemplating purchasing a new lcd monitor. The one I have now is over
9 years old and is beginning to fade.
While looking at different monitors, I see that some ads say they are back
lit and others say they are not back lit.
Has anyone had any experience reading the 2 types with an Optacon, and if
so, which type is easier to read?
