    Best CRT (w/Flat Screen) for under $250

    I need this fast, as I am ordering on Wednesday. I'm looking at the NEC FE990 from Newegg.com it's $245 with free shipping. Is this one a good one, any personal testimonies? I game and watch movies on my PC, so it must have good image quality and no strange abnormalities like the two gray lines that are common with apeture grilles.

    Yeah I was just wondering if there are any issues with them, and curious if anyone knew of one better. I love NEC. I have two 15" NECs from '93 that still work although of course the resolutions suck by today's standards.

    Good good. I knew they were one of the best, as I previously stated I still own 2 working 15"ers from years gone by. I guess no one has had any issues with the FE 990, so I'm gonna order it as planned.
