help with monitor choice? Prices?
« on: September 11, 2003, 09:45:28 pm »
ok,

I am looking to buy an arcade monitor for a jamma cab.  I hear people saying 27" is a good size to get.  That seems expensive.

Is the monitor the most expensive part of the entire arcade?  And if anyone could recommend a monitor for me, I would greatly appreciate it.  ANything that can get me looking in the right direction.  The game that will be playing in my cab will most likely be mortal combat 3 or a game of that type.

Thanks,

Mark

I personally prefer 19" monitors. They are cheaper, they are lighter, they are easier on the eyes, and the games are easier on them.
