Mitsubushi 19'' CRT Monitor fit ??
« on: January 19, 2006, 05:38:56 am »
I Have just bought the book and just putting a few things together to build the cabnet from the book

I Have been offered this 19" CRT Mitsubushi monitor, and was wondering if anyone knew how well this would fit ??

Also what are the pros and cons for using this type of monitor - Arcade monitors are rare and expencive here in Australia

My other idea was to use a standard TV (But this will mean upgrading my video card)


any help would be appreciated


Ian

A PC monitor is fine, a lot of people use them.  I tend to mount them with the standard bracket (by removing the case) however in doing this I must suggest that you get a newer monitor, they tend to have the bracket attached to both your tube and everything else.

Really for a comparison purpose, the main site is all you need.
