    What would you do?

    Ok, I have a quandry here.

    I have two workstations in my home office. Currently I've got a 17" CRT and a 19" CRT for them, and the 17" is pretty sad. So it's time to upgrade. Here's the thing:

    Would you get two 19" widescreen LCDs (Samsung 940BW) for $540 including taxes plus exchange coverage?

    Or would you get one 20" widescreen LCD (Samsung 205BW) for $490 including taxes plus exchange coverage? That means I keep the 19" CRT for the secondary computer.

    Any thoughts on this?

              Managing 2 screens is a hassle....

              I opted for 1 Large widescreen.

              You can get a 24" Widescreen for just a bit more then two 20" widescreens.

                  Thanks, but I have two workstations. I am not talking about a dual monitor setup.

                          save for a bit, then get one 30-40 inch LCD.

                          That's what I'm thinking for my home set up. I'm using dual 21 inch CRT's here at the office.

                                              Yeah I've seen the Acer in action and wasn't that impressed. The viewable angle was pretty cramped and the stand was chintzy.

                                                          I'd get the two 19s if you switch from one computer to the other a lot. It may strain your eyes a bit if one is LCD and the other is CRT.

                                                          LCD took some getting used to for me at first but now a crt really hurts my head.

                                                              two 19s... that way you can go dual-screen in the future, and for now, you have two new monitors instead of one new monitor.

                                                              besides it's only 50 bucks more

                                                                              The Samsung 205BW came on sale for $273 plus $13 for a complete Zero Dead Pixel 1 Year guarantee. I couldn't pass it up. So we got one for each computer.

                                                                              Soooo happy There's a little backlight bleed in the bottom left corner, but nothing too noticeable. Yay!
