Okay I have been comtemplating snaging another monitor for the past few months, i currently have the Apple 17 inch ADC CRT, its pluged into my Nvidia Gforce 2MX twinview card, and i have a free VGA port and extra desktop space just yearning for another monitor.

My only requirements is that i only got 300 (includding shipping) to spend, so the rules out LCDs and i would like somthing equal to or greater then my 17" i have had my eye on this viewsonic



Tomshardware.com gave it a good review for the money. so what are some others, i know Sony's and Mitsus are nice but i think if i snag a 19, which i really really want, i will be going over my budget

Get your fix here: CNet Revew Center for Monitors

They show you the pros/cons and also where you can get 'em...make sure you check PriceGrabber for the lowest bottom line pricing on anything you are seriously looking into.

thanks for the link, they gave that viewsonic a good review so i am happy, now if only gateway had the black one, with free shipping

I would advise you to save some more money unless you really need a new monitor now. It's the first lesson I learned after buying my (first and last) PC -- never save on the monitor.

My brother did it nevertheless and his 19" is terrible, far worse than my four-year old Formac 19" (I was lucky and got it used for 350 $ -- not bad for a 19" in good shape two and a half years ago).

Really, save at least 100 $ more, then buy a nice 19".

but cnet said that it was one of the better monitors, but i see where your coming from.

i just wish i could see these monitors before i buy, but Best buy only has crap on hand, same with curcuit city, how well, i might make a trip down to state stree discount.

like i said, i don't really need the monitor now anyways, it will be a second one.
