Monitor represents a very important part of
you computer. Well it is the only part of the
computer you will be constantly looking at
while using your computer, so selecting a good
one is very important to you and your eyes of
course. It is also one of the most expensive
parts so selecting a good quality for the
right price is crucial. The most common screen
size today is CRT 17", however LCD displays
are taking over conventional CRT displays big
time. They are more expensive but are much
better looking, and take a lot less space. The
17" monitor is probably the best choice right
now because of its very small price and
acceptable size. Of course if you have money
on your hand buy 19" monitor, or 17 LCD,
however if money is the issue stick with 17"
CRT which will give you the most for your
money. I do not recommend monitors
bellow 17" in screen size. Simply because the
price difference between 17" and 15" monitors
is so small, and the difference in size is
substantial. Also do not buy monitors with
built in speakers because the sound that they
produce is terrible, and today you can buy a
great set of speakers with subwoofer for a
very low price
BUDGET PC

CRT - 17" - 1280 x 1024 / 67 Hz -
0.21 mm
The EX700F is a 17"(16")
flat-screen CRT that provides great visual
performance for a truly competitive price. If
you are building a budget PC 17" CRT monitor
is a way to go.
GAMING PC

If you are crazy about
playing games you should get at least a 19"
monitor. LCD's are still not as fast as CRT
but are slowly catching up. However, I would
still recommend a big CRT monitor because of
the more affordable price and slightly better
performances.
HOME
THEATER

You will
definitely need a HDTV or a wide screen
monitor at least 17" in size. On the picture
you can see a 17" wide screen LCD.
BUSINESS PC

If you
will use your PC for business purposes (in
your office for example) I would recommend you
to buy a 17" LCD monitor. IT looks much better
than CRT, and most importantly, can save
a lot of space on you desk.
