    looking for a new monitor, my loverly 17" LG flat CRT is starting to spazz out and its a tad small anyway :(

    so im looking for a good CRT that:
    is ~£200
    preferably is flat, non-flat ones look crap now that i've been using a flat one for so long :p
    needs to be 19" although if you know of a 21" that fits the specs/price thats great :Dneeds to do 1600x1200 @ 85hz minimum
    was looking at the LG Flatron F900p, because my current monitor is an LG flatron and its fecking brilliant :D
    but have heard good things about ilyama, and the pro 455 seems to be about right specs wise and price wise, but i dont think its flat :(

    yea had seen that one but it doesn't seem to do 1600x1200 @ 85hz
    think i've pretty much got my heart set on the LG now tho :lol:

    i have a dell 19" crt from about 6 years ago. 1024x768@60hz NOT GOOD.

    still, it suffices for parents pc now and the occasional lan box when mates are round. XP looks reasonable and its not bad for a P2 300 with 32MB TNT2 :)

    yeah, but this IS a Sony Trinitron, it just has a DELL badge on it. I've opened it up to confirm this. 1600x1200 @ 85hz
