Roughly two weeks till the next BWE and my monitors starting to implode slowly T_T. Presently I have a ViewSonic CRT 19" E90. Any suggestions for what I should replace it with?

Default CRT all the way!

This is a great monitor.

And before someone goes wak on me for not suggesting a flatpanel. Simply- I have seen too many of them get dark spots at work over time. So far I've had my princeton 21" monitor for almost 10 years. Too bad princeton doesnt make crt's anymore. So . go ahead and suggest the flatpanels.. I simply dont see spending 200.00 every year or so for a fading display.

Newegg is currently sold out.. but they are supposed to get more in by tomorrow. (I bought this one for my wife) .. It is really nice.

Hrm indeed a nice monitor (the Ivory colour is my only problem, every other part of my system is black :P )

But I do have one question....think they ship to Canada? lol I looked and cannot seem to find anything stating where they're situated.

Well Newegg is a pretty popular online store here in the US. I am not 100% sure if they ship to Canada. As for the color. Little bit of masking paper and tape and Quick dry spray enamel will take care of the color .. LOL .. this is the Modifying age baby .. Customize your shiznit get stylin with it then post pix of it all over the net!

Sorry I cant help with the color more.. maybe contact newegg and see if they have the same model in black.

I have a sony E540 21" and I love it.

Truly a great monitor. I also dont like flat panels. But that is just me.

P.S. My kids use a 20" Sun monitor that I got for $25.00 at a junk yard 4 years ago.

Ah HA! Turns out my monitors still under warrenty and I can take it to a place in town to get it fixed!

Only downside:

"Once we receive the unit, we will service it within 7-14 business days and return it to you thereafter."

*Dies*

will they rent you a loner for the duration?

also the game comes out less than 2 weeks after the event so you can hold on that long

forum time to keep up with what is new and you are missing
