    My current desktop system fits pretty well inside my computer room at home. My dorm, however, is about two thirds the size and involves a bed and closet besides the machine. As a result, I've been looking for ways to scale down, as cheaply as possible. The current item I'm working on is the display - my current 17" CRT is massive. Does anyone have experience with inexpensive, smallish LCDs? I'm looking for something with decent response, but don't want to dump a lot on it. Recommendations on brand/model?

    I heard good things being said of Hitachi 15 IN LCDs. They are cheat too.

    It will never cease to amaze me how major corporate websites can be so large and include so little data. After browsing Pricewatch a bit, these Hitachis look to be a pretty good deal; now to acquire some dough ...

    I was using the same as you 17" CRT but now I am using a ViewSonic LCD V155 15" Flat Panel - Works great and pretty cheap (I got mine free for buying 4 - 48 port 3com Switches) but I check out viewsonics website and the LCD was only $150us. Flat panel is the only way to go these days.
