it's a little late now to ask isn't it?

*shrug*  a 27" something or other for 80 bucks seems reasonable I guess...

I think that TV is only CGA not VGA. Meaning you will need a special card like andys arcade card.  I might be wrong.  Good buy if you ask me regardless.

Just askin bout how the monitor it self is

but that's not what you asked...   Maybe a topic in the monitor/video forum that asks ," opinions on 27" Pentranic TV/PC monitor"  or "would a pentrac presentation monitor be good for cab" would get more helpful answers...

I'd bet dollars to donuts Oscar has seen one of these before and has an opinion or inisght to share...  but he may never see (nor others who have first hand experience with simliar monitors) because your topic / post isn't very clear...

*Shrug* ya get out of it what you put in to it...

I'm not sure I'll have the time, after helping you compose sentences, you'll undoubtadly want some hand holding for the rest of your project....  =P

sorry if I ticked ya off...  in my own backhanded way I was trying to help (and admittadly amuse myself at your expense)

it should be perfect for mame cabinet..I am actually looking for something like this(vga monitor in plastic case) and willing to pay over $300(even $400) for it but the dude wont even ship it and cant find this anywhere else.. >:(

I think that TV is only CGA not VGA. Meaning you will need a special card like andys arcade card.  I might be wrong.  Good buy if you ask me regardless.


He clearly says its "PC/TV" and pc means its vga..c'mon..common sense 8).

I am interested YES/NO both because I had enough with used monitors but if she could ship and and condition is good then I can consider.



Oh and the thing with a casing has to be less then 27" so do you know the size and all? ::)

assuming it doesnt have any weird side speaks or anything..really cant tell by the pics.

I only wanna get the a brand new one but if price is reasonable then yes..

check your PM.
