Title: Do they still make the 19" vga /svga crt arcade monitors?
Post by: rlemmon on May 02, 2010, 04:47:21 pm

Hi guys. I'm thinking about putting together a new cabinet and i would like to use a 19 inch vga CRT arcade monitor. I know happ and arcadeshop.com used to carry them but they seem to have disappeared. Does anyone know if they still make them. I wanted it because it plugs directly into a computer. Thanks.

Why not pick a second hand VGA monitor? They are free-to-pick-up on most second hand sites.
Or a CGA one with a modded/special videocard.

I really wanted to go with an authentic arcade monitor on this one. I hadent thought about a modded card. Thanks for the tip.
