Barring dot pitch, resolution you pick and a decent refresh rate...
The biggest disadvantage is how much desk space that big honking 19" crt monitor takes
up. That said, I'll not be going back to a 17" monitor voluntarally, and my wife
would like a 19" monitor instead of the 17" I got for her. My 19" is actually as
sharp/clear as my other monitors, and I am very picky about clarity.
I have been quite happy with my 19" KDS monitor for the last year. Other than
technical specifications within the price range you can afford, the most important is
that it have a 3 year factory warrantee. If it doesn't have that, don't buy it.
