    was lookin at this one here:
    http://www.compusa.com/products/prod...450&pfp=BROWSE

    does it look like a good deal, good monitor, etc?
    (I've not shopped for LCD, plasma, etc.)

    well all the 19" LCDs I have seen are 1280 x 1024

    to get 1600 x 1200 or better I'd have to go 20" or better,
    for a lot more money

    and this one has by far the best seek time @ 8ms,
    most others are 12 or 25 ms
    (not that I'll really notice a few ms I imagine...)

    hell....post some ideas

    I got a sweet deal on my Dell 19" LCD monitor...with a business discount coupon it only ran $299US and retailed for $499.

    Samsung makes them for Dell and their version [of the same monitor] retails for about $650US.

    But now I see all these other brands are dropping in price too!

    I think if you can afford it, they're all worth the money(at this time anyways).

    my .02¢

    Dell 1905 FP $270 on special . Same thing as one of the samsungs listed above.

    or (What I own)

    Dell 2005fpw (I bought for $450 on special, it has gone as low as $350).

    The dell 2005fpw is 20" widescreen and looks beautiful.

    I suspect your monitor may fail next.

    First thing you will start to see the text getting lighter and lighter

    Before long it will be hard to read

    You may even question your eyesight as even the smilies lose their colour

    If I were you, I'd just give it up as a bad idea
    .
    Political correctness is based on the principle that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
