What kind of computer monitor do you guys use(CRT, Projector, TV, Flat Screen, etc)?
 
I’ve got a Sylvania F74 16-inch CRT, I still think it gives better color than the LCD screens but it does have quite a bit of glare.
As soon as it dies I’m getting a Flat Screen.  geek

I use my 23" LGTV as a monitor. That, combined with my PS2 controller-to-USB adapter creates emulating bliss.

I don't know the brand, and I'm too lazy too look it up right now...  but its sort of big and white.  I'm not sure about types to know what type it is, but its a computer monitor.

You saw it Creston, in my room when you came over.

Doesn’t it say on the front what brand it is?
I don’t remember what it was, if it was in the summer I could’ve been suffering from heat exhaustion and didn’t notice. Lol

Oh and if you’re still using a CRT (big boxy one, that weighs like 10 pounds) monitor you should increase it’s refresh rate as high as it can go I changed mine from 60 to 85hrts and my eyes hardly get sore anymore from using the computer.
 
You probably already knew that, but it was news to me.

It might, but I'm too lazy to look right now...  My room is kind of dark.

Yeah I did know about the refresh rate, but thanks its a great tip.

LG L204WT 20" for main and LG L1780U 17" secondary.
The LG style is nice especially the L1780U which flips around and upside down, and folds down flat to the base if you want to hang on the wall or travel. But I got the 20" used, so not necessarily going for the LG but I like it. I might try out Dell or Samsung if I ever had to replace them.

My favorite thing about the 17" is that it pulls foward while you lowered its height. So the screen just less than inch off the desk and pulled toward me with just a tiny bit of the stand sticking in front so it doesn't mess up my space.
