Title: R.I.P. Widescreen LCD, Hello Fullscreen CRT!
Post by: Takatsuki on April 16, 2011, 02:57:46 am

Like the title suggested, my 20" widescreen LCD monitor I've been using for about 3 years is dead! T_T

So, the only alternative I could found was 11 year old 17" fullscreen CRT monitor and I'm using it now! T~T

Sigh, I don't really know what to do. Should I keep using this 11 year old CRT or pay $50 to get my LCD repaired?

Or, should I just buy $100 LED monitor? GAH, I don't know! ;w;

Remember that you get what you pay for...

A $100 LED monitor will get you dull colors and the worst speakers in the world.

But please don't buy a monitor with speakers unless you're really strapped for cash...

Go at least $140 if possible. Asus makes some LCD screens that aren't that bad.

Fortunately there's only a few manufacturers of the actual panels themselves, it's all either going to be Sony, Sharp, Phillips, LG, and I may have missed one.
