I aready ahve a few people looking into it so please if you would like this brand new monitor at almost $200 off, contact me


Its a great monitor brand new from Mitsubishi,
 
What if he was interetested in LCDs only? :) I'm also looking for the best screen in the price range, but for space restrictions, LCD is highly-preferred.
 
Pixeleet, I'd love to help, but that'd be hijacking this thread =0)

He said, "biggest" =0þ

I'm just assuming he's looking for picture quality over anything else.

If he wants biggest and best it is a CRT, LCDs are good for people who dont need the best quality and dont ahve the space,

Many will disagree but you cannot compare any LCD to a Appature Grille CRT. The Monitor I am selling in the above most is the best and most expensive crt you can buy under $1000.
 
If you are looking into LCD's, go for the Dell 2001FP, hands down.

Just picked one up for $719 from Dell.com a few days ago and I love it.

The S Video and Composite inputs are sweet too. I have it connected to my home theater, so I can watch TV and work on my 22" CRT at the same time... oh, and it has Picture in Picture too, so you can work on it, and have a little TV window at the same time. It's awesome. I'm saving up for a 2nd one :D

I think that that's a big mis-conception. Yes, when LCD's were first on the market their picture quality was very poor. Not anymore. I have this LCD sitting next to my Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2020u, and I like the picture quality on the Dell better. This is was a $1000 monitor (the Mitsubishi) when I bought it. I do graphic design and 3D work, so I'm very critical of picture quality, and I love my 2001FP.

Not to mention that the Dell has true 24 bit color, plus when using an LCD with a DVI connection, things like monitor calibration and color temperature are not an issue. Since the signal is digital, their is no calibrating.
 
I would say you need to calibrate your Diamondpro.

I'm sure that anybody whose reviewed the monitor (there's even a good review here and another on Anandtech) you'll see that the 2001 has less than stellar image quality. They even have a picture beside picture comparison of it and the 193P and you can easily see the astounding difference in contrast.
 
Just a thought but the Samsung 213T is below $1000 most places right now. (Try Buy.com) and it’s blew my Dell 2001FP out of the water. Most people who have posted about it think as I do that it games really well and has top notch color. Like all LCD’s take the time to calibrate it, makes a huge difference.
