Thoughts on this 19" LCD?

I need a flat screen for my computer at home...I currently am using a 21" tube, which I will probably keep for my computer in my bedroom...but for the computer in the living room I want something smaller and compact.

I saw this Dell 19" screen on ebay for $400
Any thoughts on it. I have my 21" CRT set at 1280X1024
can I set this new 19" flat panel at 1600x 1200?

Thats the screen I have. I picked it over the Ultrasharp b/c it's faster. Constrast ratio isn't as great but it looks fine.

You should be able to get it cheaper tho from Dell. They always have crazy deals going on. Someone here bought a comp with this monitor shipped for like $450! I got my sweet comp with it for $1K.

Viewsonic VP191B ThinEdge 19" LCD Monitor is the one getting all the great reviews.

Nah I believe it is the Viewsonic P810 or something like that

I am not in front of it right now...I am about 2500 miles away from it

I'm 99% sure it is that viewsonic.

Either way I want to keep it...it is still a sweet monitor. I just want something smaller and nicer looking for the living room.

also...it weighs about the same as a compact car.
