What about this TV?
shardian:
You should leave a tv in its case if possible. The neck on a crt tv is pretty flimsy, and is often supported by the case in some way. The chassis is mounted to the case, so that will cause problems too.
Finally, the neck of the crt is probably less than an inch from the back of the case, so you really won't save anything.

Well DK, I am not laughing. I will let you know how it turns out when I finally get it built/mounted! Thanks Shardian, I think I am going to do my darndest to keep it in the case! It really wasn't space I was worried about, it was mounting it. I think the straps will work well though.

Dude, I'd get some high density foam - like they use in shipping electronic components and such - or styrofoam sheets/blocks. Put a thin piece undeneath, and rectangular blocks around in strategic places - think of them akin to braces when building a cabinet - and then strap it down.
Also, I bought that TV to try out, but I couldn't get the ATI card (for composite out/dual monitor operation) to work correctly, so returned both. I'm curious to see what your results are.

Tranq you mean component out correct? Red/Blue/Green. I am going to try it work tonight with S-vid and see if it works well. if the picture is good I might just leave it. Hopefully I will get a chance to check it out tonight. I'll post pics later if I can get to it. Cheers.

Groovygamegear.com has some great 27" monitors for sale. I bought one and it kicks ass. Even Tempest looks good. Mortal Kombat looks great to.
