Once you go flat you'll never go back!
Finally I got rid of my old 19" CRT monitor and got a 19" flatscreen. It's AWESOME. I never want to use a CRT again..

I got the ViewSonic VA902b Black 19" 8ms LCD Monitor for $235 from newegg.com. Downloaded a few of the ATi demos and didn't see any ghosting. Sooooo much more clear then my CRT was. My desk looks alot better also!

will i love my picture tub screen its clear and sharp, i try flat screen it don't look that great to me. my aunt as a flat-screen it like looking through wax-paper not the same as a clear screen as a picture tub.

i not a big fan of them flat screens. sorry it my taste

My is a gateway EV910 it been doing me great, i may get a newer version maybe next year.

all them flat screen Tv or monitor (HD-TV too) screen is like looking through a plastic sheet on top a picture not really clear it more like fuzzy looking to me.
