I've seen this question asked before on this forum, but since deals and technology are always changing thought there'd be some value in an updated answer. I have a basic Compaq with a Pentium and a 8x Nvidia Geforce Pci video card that enables me to use dual monitors. Unfortunately, the pixel size only allows me to play one table on one monitor and 2 on the other on the lowest setting. I want to be able to play 3-4 tables on one screen (Party) and do other things on the other.
So, here's the question: What would be the cheapest monitor I could use in tandem with one of my current crt monitors to accomplish this task? Also, is bulk the only difference btw. lcd and crt monitors? I saw a 19 incher crt and office max for $279. Truth is, I'd rather just get a flat screen because I'd have to buy a new desk if I got one of those bulky ones. If anybody knows of any great deals that make 3-4 tables on a $200 flat screen possible that would be great. Thanks so much in advance to any replies.
