I may have the exact same monitor as yourself . Mine's also the Samsung Syncmaster, model 750s and it's pretty chunky I must say, but show me one crt that isnt . I have a second monitor that's a LG 19" flat screen.

Well I am 19" Philips 190S5 bought an year ago. I remember when I first installed it that compared to my old 17" CRT it seemed so huge. It looked like it took a hundred years just to cross the screen with the pointer . It doesn't have any great stuff, it is quite balanced. The weak point I think is the fact that colors seem to fade it you don't look at it exactly right (yeah I know thta is the weak point of every LCD). Even if is has a 10ms response time that is no problem o me. I played games with enought frames per second to exced the response time and I didn't have any quality problems with it. And above all I like the design...

I use a 19" TFT neovo F-419, its brilliant. I was going to get a 17" but after using my girlfriends 17" I could see the difference so bad. It is well worth the extra money.

The only system I have is a laptop but the LCD inverter is out on it. I got it for free from my brother since it's burnt out. Even though it's only a 1.33GHz Celeron with 256MB RAM it's good enough for maintaining websites. Anyway, I was fortunate enough to find a 15" Gateway VX700 moitor sitting in the trash a block from where I reside only a day after I got this laptop (which, by coincidence, is also a Gateway). I took it home, let it dry out, dug up a power cord for it and... voila! It worked! When I turn it on it make a loud noise but I don't seem to be having any trouble with it. It's been difficult to find work in the area I live (dead town) so, in my free time I attempt to make money through Adsense. I started my Adsense campaign on April 19 and using many of the strategies to drive traffic to my sites and so far, as of this moment, I have earned a total of $60.28. I guess it's a good start.

Yeah i am a laptop user and i currently run a dual montor display system using the 15.4 widescreen laptop monitor at resolution 1920x1200 and i also use a Mag Innovision 14'' LCD Monitor at resolution of 1024x768. My laptop monitor is super clear but the one by Mag is a 5 year old lcd monitor which does not have the greatest contrast but still is very good and takes very little space which is why i like it.

1. Geforce Fx 5200 Problems - My monitor goes blank right as the Windows Welcome screen should appre (5)

   I hadn't been able to play the Sims 2, and I figured out it was because my video card wasn't
   supported. So I went out and picked up a cheap GeForce FX 5200 ($50) and installed it in my
   computer. Well as soon as I turned my computer on, everything was normal. But I noticed the
   resolution was huge when it got to my desktop and when I went into Display Properties, it was the
   only resolution setting there. So I figured I'd install the video card drivers that came on the
   software CD. After that it prompted me to restart my computer, and when I did, everything...

3. Monitor Problem? - (1)

   I have a Viewsonic E70f Monitor and the "Brightness" level box keeps popping up. I can hit the menu

   going on?...

4. Monitor - a most neglected device. (9)

   Monitors remain the most neglected device when it comes to buy or upgrading. Most people only look
   for fastest processor, harddisk space and Ram. However, one important aspect of pc performance often
   gets completely overlooked, and that is the display. This should ideally be one of the more
   important things for any computer user to consider. First, because the display, which depends both
   on the monitor and graphics card, is one of the more expensive component that you buy- it makes up
   about a quarter of the cost of your entire system. The monitor is a long term investme...

5. Double Monitor Question - ^^ (15)

   Alright, I got 2 monitors currently and I found that my brother left his old graphics card at my
   house. I was wondering if I would be able to run dual monitors with this. I don't know like
   anything about running dual monitors. Do you just need 2 monitors and 2 graphic cards? If thats
   the case, my current graphics card is a 32mb geforce2. My brothers old one I believe is some 16mb
   card. Will these work? or will their be conflicts because I believe they are different brands and
   also have different mb capacity? Also, I'm running windows 2000 pro. Will my os...

7. No Monitor Signal After Power Surge - (7)

   Last Sunday we had a power surge due to a lightning that hit our house. Luckily everything is
   physically intact. The problem is that some of our technological equipments have been fried. Two of
   our TV's broke and my new tower that I built myself is not working anymore. To make long story
   short, When I turn on my computer, the monitor is not showing any picture. I tried another monitor
   and it says there is no signal. I opened up my tower to see what was happening under the hood... and
   what I observed was that the LED light on the motherboard is still lighting up. Whe...

8. Graphics Card/monitor Issue - (3)

   Alright, I'll stay by telling you what Graphics Card I have, so there's not confusing. I
   have a RECENTELY purchased 258mb GeForce 5500 graphic card. I installed it on my computer, a long
   with the drivers.. What I didn't do!; Stupidly enough, I never plugged my monitor into the
   graphics card, ha. So for about 2 months I thought I was running a GeForce, when I was actually
   running an Intel Extreme Graphics card, ya, don't ask me how I didn't notice. I figured
   that out today when I tryed to play fable, and it yelled at me for not having a good en...

9. Problem With My Monitor - (5)

   I was wondering if someone might know what my problem might be. I have an LCD Monitor and I had it
   for about 3 years. I'm having some weird problem with it. Whenever the monitor was off and I
   turn it on with the power button, the green light on the power button starts blinking on and off for
   5-10 minutes and then finally the monitor turns on. I have been having this problem for a while and
   I tried disconnecting the plugs and connecting them back, but the same thing happens. Whenever the
   monitor is off, and then when I turn it on, all that happens is the power bu...
