718888 2008-11-08 04:35:00 Hi Team,
My Philips 107T crt is showing signs of old age.
What is a good, reliable LCD monitor that could replace my 107T ?
I have a tight budget unfortunately.
TIA.
Phil.

718889 2008-11-08 04:40:00 View Sonic are always good " bang for Buck" esp if you are on a tight budget.

Some of the cheaper LCD's like AOC are not always the best - some are fine - what sort of budget do you have ?

Optomistic Uh. Not always - depends on what you want. Quality size etc- Pricespy - Viewsonic (www.pricespy.co.nz) - scroll down till you get to 17" and these give an idea as to whats available from Whom. General rule - dont jump into the first one you see - it wont hurt to ask here if anyone has delt with the shop you select - cheaper doesn't always mean good service.

718894 2008-11-21 07:55:00 Hi, should I buy a broken LCD monitor from eBay at a much lower price with the hope of getting it successfully refurbished and making it usable again? For example, a Dell 24" retails for around $550, while I can buy the same product on eBay for around $60 total albeit it's announced non-functional. I suppose that even giving it to a technician to fix or attempting it on my own will ultimately be cheaper. What do you think? navratilova (14293)

718896 2008-11-21 10:54:00 Chances are the monitor's unrepairable or would cost more than the monitor itself to repair. Or else the original seller would have probably repaired it:p Blam (54)
718897 2008-11-21 18:47:00 AOC is ok, they do have a 3yr warranty.
And its cheap.
