That's pretty good, although with the cost of the TV license you'd need as well, it would be about the same as my current 19" Acer 1932M.

I never write anything that won\\\'t run on a stock A1200.  That\\\'s the Jigsaw Lounge Guarantee.

@Marco
My LCD Monitor certainly has no trouble with it.  Only problem is, the image isn't quite centred properly.  It's a bit too high, and there seems no obvious way to adjust it.  Fine for workbench cos you can just move the screen around, bit of a problem for some games though...

"Actually, you only have to buy a TV License if the equipment you are buying contains a tuner. If it's just a SCART and VGA input, then you are not required to pay a license."

I know this, which is why I got a monitor and not a TV!  It has DVI and S-Video inputs too...

It's true, you don't actually need a license if you don't watch TV on it... you can even use it to watch videos on an ordinary VCR, as long as you don't receive programmes "honest guv".

Thing is though if I got a telly we doubtless would watch TV programmes... this is something I have sucessfully avoided for the last 3 years.

And anyway.  It's 19 inch!
