So I've been using a 22" Compaq CRT (20" viewable) for about 6 years now. Its probably the biggest, heaviest, and ugliest thing ever created. She weighs in at a whopping 86 pounds and the screen itself on this monster is not exactly flat either. (looks kinda like a bubble). Its nice cus its big as hell which is nice cuz ShLoNkYs blind, but shes getting worn out. I have to turn the brightness ALL the way up in order for it to barely be bright enough.

First I was lookin for a 20" widescreen then decided on gettin one of the dell 23" widescreen monitors. This was untill I realized that there was no way in hell I'd be able to get insane framerate in the native resolution of 1920x1200. Besides that, the response time kinda sucked.

I finally settled for This bad boy. :tup: I can't wait to get this bigass ugly thing off my desk. I may call in sick to work the day this thing gets here and play CSS all day!!

I bet mines bigger and uglier. Got a nice yellowish hue to it too. Gotta love how every piece of computer hardware made earlier than 5 years ago is beige. :tup:

Yeah I probably would never buy anything but viewsonic, Sometimes a bit pricey But they are worth it, nice brightness and flawless design.

Niiiice. prolly the best you can do with that size and response time. They got new viewsonic 19" screens w/2ms response times under 400 bucks. I need a second, I mean my graphics card doesnt just have 2 dvi's for no reason.

OOH OOH!! Coming in the mail TODAY!!!!! One day early. :tup: I am actually really excited to get this thing. I have always had a pretty kickass computer, so a new videocard or more memory isn't really all that exciting.

However, I have been staring at the UGLIEST monitor known to man for years now. I let you guys know how I like it and maybe take a few pics. YAY!!
