Before you buy your new computer
equipment you will want to decide on a PC monitor. After all you will be
staring at it for the next few years! You will need to decide on the image
quality, resolution, size, and type you’re new should have enough screen space
for what you will be doing. The viewable size is about an inch smaller that the
advertised tube size on CRTs. The best size for most people is 17-19 inch.
Either of these sizes should be plenty for most computer equipment needs. An
LCD screen is the full size it says so it really takes up a lot less space than
the CRT, inch for inch.
Would A LCD or CRT PC Monitor Fit
Your Style of Computer Equipment?
Is an LCD PC monitor for you?
For most computer users a 17 inch
LCD is the optimal desktop pc monitor. A 15 inch is cheaper but will seem quite
small if your current computer equipment as a 17 inch CRT. 17 inch will be most
comfortable in size and price. The price is much higher when you get to an 18
to 19 inch PC monitor.
Maybe a CRT PC monitor is for you?
The 19 inch flat screen is great,
the price is about the same as a conventional but the picture quality is much
greater. Also, it will take up much less desk space then the conventional PC
monitor.
Important Note from PCworld
Magazine:
When you are finished using your current computer equipment never, ever
send your old PC monitor to the dump. Recycle it instead. It's not only good
for the environment, but it's also a legal requirement in some states that will
not accept PC monitors in regular municipal landfills. CRTs contain four to six
pounds of lead plus other toxic materials that leach into the soil and water if
not properly disposed. Check with the vendor or your local government to find
recyclers in your area that can handle CRTs.
