    CRT Monitor

    Which is a better CRT monitor? I have a 21" Sun Microsystems (Model: GDM-5510) and a 21" IBM (Model: 6652-U3N) w/t DVI. I guess in terms of value and quality!

    I have to get rid of one because we have a baby coming and need the space. Does the DVI provide better output? The Sun looks a lot sweeter too.

    Grats on the baby - imo the screen that will support highest resolution and refresh rates would be preferable, unless the other clearly has a better picture anyway.

    All things being equal, thenyou keep the one that 'looks' best.

    On CRT monitors, look at the specs as well

    You want the lowest dot pitch and the highest resolution capability. Age has a bearing as well. On the back you will see a 4 digit year which will be the year of manufacture.
