Title: anyone know where...
Post by: spectre on June 25, 2003, 07:52:09 pm

Well I've decided to go with a 19 inch monitor in my cab since i like how it looks when i play it on my desktop... prob is, i can't sacrafice the monitor I have on my pc now... anyone know where I can get a cheap 19 inch regular pc monitor for a good price? new or used doesn't matter as long as it works and the screen is fine... lol... (and of course it has to be able to produce the color depth and resolutions for mame, lol) THANKS:)

actually i changed my mind, I'll go with a 17 inch... it's just big enough, a whole lot cheaper (i can actually afford one of these, lol) and it will cut down on the pixelation...
anyway...
17's are fairly cheap, if anyone has one or knows where i can get one let me know and we can work something out or whatever...

I'd check out Goodwill or Salvation Army. Also, here in Austin, we have a Computer works. It's a Salvation Army with only computer stuff. Got some cheap monitors too.

Thanks, but we don't have a computer works around here, and the salvation army, goodwill, chkd, and other thrift stores around here only have those old 10 inch green monitors, haha...
