well..since the thread has my name on it..i should provide more info.
STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM THE 27" onces from babylon ny.
you will regreat if you do plan on getting one.however,if you can pick one up then great.test it then take it.
they look awsome,any game fills whole screen,can read anything ever,you can even use it to play pc games and surf the internet if you like.one more little detail>>>
OH MY GOD ! ! ! .....dreamcast looks amezing.....its nothing like you have ever seen in your entire life.just crezy...i am sure you will start crying after you see dreamcast on these monitors,using vga box ofcourse.
however,there are tiny bit difference between the 19" and 27"... 27" seem to be little bit fuzzy.and 19" is crystal clear.
i have 19",i bought brand new so its still working.too bad i am not lucky enough to have a 27".i dont even need that big to be honest because i am the only one playing most of the time and it fits perfectly for my setup.
anyone thinking about adding a dreamcast,i suggest you get a vga switch box so you can switch between PC and DREAMCAST.dont be dumb and turn pc and dreamcast on together.that will blow out the monitor by drawing too much power.you switch when the monitor is off.
every and i mean every game i played worked great.i play pc games most of the time.games cant look any better i believe.i even got a ps2 hooked up and looks great.ps2 dont output vga signal so dont expect to be in heaven like if you were using a dreamcast.
good luck and remember "think twice before taking a chance with any used/refb/rebuilt monitors"
go with brand new 19".its somehow bigger then any 19" or 21" tv tube....very odd...but i am one happy gamer with the monitor.
