    Monitor

    With all the monitors on the market, which one would you guys suggest for around 250-300 dollars. Needs to have at least 70 hertz and support 1024res.

    SAMSUNG 955DF-T/T Silver/Black 19" CRT Monitor 0.20mm Dot Pitch D-Sub - Retail $199
    Maximum Resolution 1600x1200 @ 68 Hz
    Recommended Resolution 1280x1024 @ 75 Hz
    Dot Pitch 0.20mm


    Highly recommended.

    Notice the dot pitch...

    And, again, stay away from TigerDirect, they've got horrible customer service...

    I have one of these Samsungs and it's pretty darn flat. Of course, no CRT is ever going to be totally flat, but if they make 'em big enough they can make the viewable area just about completely flat...

    Re: Monitor

    I'd recommend spending a little more extra money buying a Samsung 213t.

    With all the time everyone spends staring at computer monitors, i think extra money spent on viewing that is easier on the eyes is justifiable

    True. If you can afford $700 for your monitor, this would indeed be the way to go!

    In '94? That was when he was just starting out, isn't it? He's come to be an important part of the Padres, especially since Tony Gwynn retired...

    If your looking for cheaper, KDS is recommended. Very good monitors for the price.

    Re: Monitor

    I have the Samsung 913t for my second monitor. I run duals and it is great. $299.00.

    This is what I do want. This is Trggers rig.
