i just got my new 17" CTX flat pannel and it gorgeous. So bright and beaftiful. And it comes in a gray case. i just wanted to let yall know if you were thinking bout a new monitor. This is the one to get. its a CTX PV720. It only cost me $565.00
If you are willing to spend that much, you can get a reburb Dell 17" LCD from tigerdirect.com. I've had pretty good luck with refurb LCD panels and get them at bargain prices.
i got it form my distrubitor. Im using it as a display for customers to look at before they buy. I didnt want to put it on a display machine. it needs to be on my desk where it can truly be appreciated.
