PS I am thinking of buying a 17inch lcd screen,because with a 19 inch I have to pan/tilt my head a lot




I have both a 17inch and a 22inch monitor, but head tilting/panning isn't much of an issue really. It does take some time to get used to more space on your desktop, but you're probably already sitting at at least half a meter away from your monitor right? In my experience head tilting doesn't become an issue except when you go bigger than 22inch. You should go see them in a store if you're able to, go sit in front of them, try sitting at different distances.

Off course it's your choice, but you should at least look into it. I used to believe head tilting/panning would be an issue with 19inch monitors... well for me personally, I turned out to be wrong.

If you want a really nice monitor and are willing to spend some bucks for it, go with a Samsung 226BW (that's the 22inch one LCD) (or one of it's smaller brothers/sisters)... The best money I've ever spend on a monitor for sure. Heck I would buy another one if I had the money.

I wouldn't buy a CRT monitor, LCDs seem to be better now.. at least the newer ones are afaik, but don't take anything for granted just because I say so. There are a LOT of different kinds of monitors. It's really worth checking them out in a store to get a better look at them.
