Wtf does the picture quality have to do with moving the stand around? It would have made more sense if said he expected the arm to weaken :S

Yeah

Well, my old 19" CRT (1024*768 @85Hz) is dying, so I need a replacement soon.

I've thought about getting a good LCD for a while, but the thing that puts me off (especially with the big ones - 19" plus) is they have a fixed resolution which I often find is a bit too high for my taste/eyes. And I know you can run them at lower resolutions, but then the panel interpolates the pixels which is distracting Sad

When you change from the native resolution the text is really blurry...

Any tips for good 19, 20 or 21 inch CRT's under $600?

Generally I think Samsung make the best LCD panels. I'm not sure what your experience with them is like but remember a 19" lcd has an inch more viewable area than your 19" crt. Therefore viewing resolutions of 1280x1024 on the lcd should still be comfortable for you. There is a huge number of 19" models about, try something like the 940B. Good value Smile
