I ordered a 17 inch LCD monitor together with my new pc but that's still on backorder. I know you can buy 17 inch LCD's in shops everywhere, but I don't trust them. Also, my current 17 inch CRT monitor, CTX-brand, dates from the same period as this pc, 1998, and it's still working fine. The reason why I'm moving to LCD is because I want a bigger monitor but my pc desk is not 'deep' enough to put it at a sufficiently long range. Even this 17" CRT-monitor is actually a bit too close to me/my eyes.
