Consumer LCDs a Big No-No in Retail Space
As we go about our business here at Origin Displays the same conversation continues to be had regarding the actual medium that will be displaying the content of any digital menu board system. This medium, of course, is the LCD/LED monitor. It has always been our business practice to explain the benefits of using commercial grade LCDs versus the use of consumer/residential units that you would purchase for your home. We explain this as best as we can (until we’re blue in the face) rather than strong arming our prospects in to using our exclusively selected screens. The reason for this is twofold: (1) in our opinion, the cost/benefit of using a commercial unit as opposed to the alternative is not our decision to make, and (2) the LCD market is very transparent, meaning that the back and forth about specifications of “this LCD” or “that LED,” and the pricing negotiation based on what consumers find online at a third rate website is counter-productive and ends up being a bottle-neck for everyone involved.
