Is there another monitor of similar price that is better?

Or, since you can't 4 table without overlap on either of those monitors...

yeah, if it's for poker then get the Samsung 204b since with it you can 4 table at almost any site without overlap.

I'm not sure the obsession with LCD's anyway. Yeah they're more stylish, but I don't think most people realize they are actually slower and poorer in performance than most CRT's, not to mention more expensive.

Yeah if you want to multitable get the 204b, I play mostly at stars though and there resizable windows give me no problem what so ever, so I'm getting a samsung 225bw, I've always loved a widescreen monitor. Not enough cash for a 24" though [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
