Sony DELUXEPRO CPD-G520 21 inch CRT Monitor

I have had this monitor for 8 months or so now, and I must say that it is an excellent monitor. It will do up to 2048x1536 resolution at either 80 or 85hz (I forget which). Unfortunately, even with an ATI Radeon 8500 and after raising the font size to 120% of the standard size, text in places such as the start menu can be difficult to read. Because of this, I usually run at 1600x1200/100Hz. I have found this to be the best resolution for the monitor, because this is high enough to give me a large screen area, but text is still easily legible.

Contrary to the other people that have reviewed this monitor, I have no problems with the on-screen controls. Yes, they could be a little better (look @ an NEC monitor for an example), but they aren't that bad, and at any rate, how often do you actually use them? I mean, I set mine and forget them, except for degaussing the monitor biweekly or so.

Overall, this is the absolute best 21" monitor you can get, with the possible exception of Sony's own GDM-F520, which is significantly more expensive.
