19" or 21" CRT Recommendations Please by Dan
Hi, Anyone care to recommend a good 19" or 21" CRT for use as my main monitor with my Parhelia card. 18"+ LCD's still to pricy and the colour and quality isn't as good as a CRT so only looking for CRT's at the moment (my other 2 monitors are LCD). Cheers
