Thread: 2nd monitor

  1. #1

    2nd monitor

    I have a 9700Pro and a Viewsonic PF790 19" Flat CRT now. I hooked my old Sony 17sf to it and it really looks like crap. So I want to get another CRT to compliment my current main one.

    Anything good in the 17-19" range that I should be looking at? No LCD since I cannot afford them. Any good deals out there?

    I don't know if Dell deals still around but the Samsung 955DF (19") is a good buy!

    u just missed the samsung 19" 950? for $150 shipped from dell. That wasnt a flat screen so probably not what your lookin for.
    This past weekend we all tried to grab that sony refurbished 19' for 130-140 shipped but it turned out there was only one...
    Well, if you find one let us know.....

    You can't afford a LCD, but you have a 9700Pro? Wasn't that a little on the expensive side?

    yep...what's the good names in CRT? Viewsonic is what i'm looking at...is this good or should I try something different?

    I don't mind switching my Viewsonic out with a better quality monitor as my main.

    How about the Samsung 955DF for $200.56 + tax (free shipping) from Dell SB? That's a good price for a flat screen 19" monitor!
