basicaly im just asking for the best 19" moniter under $250. for a 5 years my sylvania L15 (15" LCD) has served me well on older systems, but when i got my new system (P4 2.8HT 9800Pro) i knew it would have to go. Epesially now that i've gotin into some serious gaming, CAD design, and a little flash design ( i know its alot to ask from one system but it seems to handle it well) the real problem is @1024 x 768 all the menu's and toolbars in my cad's and espesially flash take up like 90 % of the screen. not only that but its started its death spiral, i get red lines and dots around grey and red objects, its even started flikering every once and a while (not really a fliker but the best way i can describe it is that i can see it refresh itself sometimes). im 14 so can't afford to drop 600 bucks on a 19" lcd. The 19" requirment is really more so i can run 1600 x 1200 or even 1792 x 1344 which i've seen on a few 19"ers

Thanks in advance
 
I'd get the Samsung 955DF (19") DynaFlat CRT. It's a great 19" monitor for just over $200 shipped. For around $300-$350 you could get the NEC Diamondtron 19" CRT (model DP930SB-BK). I've never compared these two monitors but the latter is supposed to be better.
 
mabye i wrote the title wrong, i really don't mind spending around $ 250 without shipping (around dosent mean an extra $100 mind you) anyway just wanted to Clarify that. iv'e herd some bad things about the aperture grille giving you lines on the screen. and i've also herd something about a green haze on the nec's.
 
If you wanted to spend around $250 without shipping I'd get this,

I personally don't mind the 2 thin lines, its almost impossible to find while gaming. The only way that I can really see it is if I work on a word processor with a white background.

If your adamant about not getting the aperature grill then you might consider

It uses shadow mask so it doesnt have the 2 thin lines.
 
the Mitsubishi DP930SB is probably teh best 19" you can buy

Dell has lots of sales (and they do carry that monitor). I bought one recently for about $310 (including taxes + free shipping. $287 sale price)
