    Post Need help picking a Moniter

    I want to replace my moniter and have about $500-600 to spend. Does anyone have any suggestions because I know squat about which moniters are good?

    NEC and Sony are the best in my opinion. Although the wires in the trinitron tubes drive me nuts, most people never even notice they are there.

    I agree with Mayhem, NEC and Sony. But why did you have to mention the lines on the Trinitron, it took months to get used to them. Now I have to start all over.

    They are real fine horizontal lines. It's the way the Trinitron CRT's are manufactured. Evidently there are fine wires embedded between the phosphor and the screen. They are also used in some NEC monitors.

    A. For the one with Lines on his screen:
    They are called "horizontal damper wire shadows" - and the reason is clear, Trintron Based tubes uses them to "Hold up" the screen. I find it VERY annoying i love my LG Flatron 795FD Screen (Gr8 picture, Supreme Bandwidth, low price)

    B. for the on who wants to buy:
    Buy the LG Flatron 795FD 17"
    Or IIyama 17"
    Or Eizo Nano 19" (Very Expnsive, but believe me worth the money...)

    Up The IRONS!
