Hello, I am looking for a 19" Screen Size PC Monitor to use in a Mame Based MS Pacman Style Cocktail cabinet. Can anyone recommend one ?. And idealy one that can be bought in the UK. Thanks, Nick. |

Personally I'd recommend the WellsGardner U3100, as long as you want a realistic arcade-look instead of the blockiness of PC-monitors. As it is an open-frame monitor, you additionally get a much better airflow in this position. It's not very suited for PC-games or typing your letters in Word though. But it'd be better if someone else tells his opinion about this, too - I'm not neutral in this 'cause I've to sell one in Europe (Germany) ;) Anyway, if you wanna have a look at this thing look at my homepage under the monitor-sections. There are plenty of pictures about it. Cheers Carsten |

Thanks for your replies. How easy is to contect a WG arcade monitor to a computer ?. I was told that the refresh rates of Mame (particularli in Windows) can damage arcade monitors. do you know if this is correct ? thanks, Nick. |

These monitors are designed for PCs, not to be confused with regular monitors. They have a scan rate of 31.5khz meaning they support upto 720x480 at 60hz, possible to get 800x600 at 55hz Simply plug and play as they use the standard DB15 VGA lead. I hope that helps. |
