Samsung SyncMaster 763 MB 17 inch CRT Monitor

I can't say that I spent much more than 20 minutes shopping for this monitor. Walked into Best Buy, picked the best looking 17" (including low priced LCDs--$400, not looking to spend $600 on a monitor at this point) and walked out. The monitor cost $170 and has a $40 rebate (look for rebates on this unit, apparently are always available and vary from $30 to $50). The screen is dead flat. The text is very crisp corner to corner. The colors are bright. It has a number of features, but quite honestly, these are the only ones that really matter. An excellent value at $130 if I ever get the rebate. I have had the unit for about 30 days now and continues to work flawlessly.
