Ian… with the photography stuff you do… don’t cheap out. You are better off with a GOOD 17inch… than a shitty 24 inch

Wrd. I’ll have to do my research then I really dont know whats what. You make a good point too because the display on My MBP is pretty decent, It will have to at least match that.

Might be a bit of a dated choice. But I have a Cornerstone P1650 21" CRT monitor that I will not be needing soon enough as it would take too much space in my car. Beastly but it’s worked great for 3-D work and such stuff.

Max resolution: 2048 x 1536 @ 75Hz  
Dot Pitch: 0.21 mm  
Dual VGA inputs  
More calibration, and screen settings than you could shake two sticks at.  
Might fully be capable of crushing a desk, babies, and dead hookers all at once.

Would be quite cheap if your interested.

CRT’s are usually superior picture quality. At least good ones. But 21" holy huge batman!

I have no clue if thats any good, but 1080p is a T-up and the price is right on the mark. If you could forward it that would be awesome. [sohc3s@yahoo.com](mailto:sohc3s@yahoo.com). Thanks.

Thanks, I’ll keep it in mind, but judging by some things Ive read, the comparable samsung is WAY better, especially in the picture quality dept. which is big for me because of photography, plus its only 10 bucks more. Thanks again though.
