Good Stuff

 

I am a gamer, and this seems to be everything I need for BF2. Text looks real good to me. Colors great. A lot of adjusting to get it just right, but it is possible to get near perfect. I have a very slight 3/32" difference in height from right side to...

Good monitor without convergence controls

 

Despite what's listed in the specifications for this model, it does NOT have controls to adjust vert. and horiz. convergence nor color purity. Evidently an older model had these features but the current model being shipped does NOT. Otherwise, a good...

Good Monitor

 

All in all a good monitor and a good purchase. Desktop and Photos look great on it but I use it for CAD - those thin lines still show up better on a shadow-mask CRT than on an Aperture Grille or especially, an LCD. I must say, however, that when it...

Very good monitor

 

I just got this monitor today. First off, Newegg as always came through exceeding my expectations. Order Monday, get it on Wednesday? WOW, for a big item like this, that's FAST. It came from CA, received in PA. Sure, FedEx is to praise too, but Newegg...

Melodyssey

 

Wanted something BIG for gaming. Was surprised that it took up about the same room as my old 17" Gateway! It took a little tuning to get the text a little darker, but it can be done. The picture is very bright and colorful. Games like Halflife, Doom 3,...

PHILIPS 201B45 Black 21" CRT Monitor 0.25mm Dot Pitch 15-pin D-Sub / 5 BNC

 

After reading dozens of reviews while trying to decide on a monitor I settled on this one. Very happy with the decision so far. Nice, clear text and vibrant colors. No visible lines holding the shadow mask screen. VERY relieved that Fed Ex has...

Here's your value!

 

I bought 2 of these for college bound kids- both wanting lots 'o performance for video editing and that sort of thing (yes, I know- the hot shot games!). These monitors 'filled the bill' very nicely without bankruptcy. The footprint is small for their...

PHILIPS 201B4074 Beige 21" CRT Monitor 0.25mm Dot Pitch 15-pin D-Sub / 5 BNC

 

Excellent purchase. Replaced my aging 17" inch, but fits in the exact same desktop footprint. Costs hundreds less than other 21" CRTs I looked at, so I was expecting some hidden "gotcha", but I was wrong. It's a great buy, definitely recommended.

Very Nice and Very Big

 

I upgraded from a decent 19 inch monitor ... and I'm glad I did. Great picture, clean, bright, accurate colors. I have two friends with money to burn that purchased an NEC 17 inch LCD for more thatn this cost... my Philips 21 inch I think is better...
