Go with the T.V.!! I'm using a 25" T.V. with an ATI Rage Fury Pro 32mb card and it looks awesome! Even windows isn't that bad. Granted it's not perfect, but it is much better than I had expected. I can actually navigate thru windows on the t.v. My resolution is set to 800x600 since that's all the t.v. can handle, but that is more than enough for all mame games and pc games. I'm running mame, nintendo, atari, coleco, snes, and PC: NFL Blitz, Combat Flight Simulator, Alice, Space Ace, Pinball, and more, and they all look great! I'd save the money and put it towards an upgrade for your computer or heaven forbid....put it in the bank! :)
Game on!! Brian
: I had all but decided on a 25/27" tv, but I've started to wonder if I would be happier with an arcade moitor. The 27" WG-D9200 looks pretty sweet, but it would be close to $300 more than the TV (when you throw in shipping). Is it that much better that a TV with S-Video running through an xpert@play 98?
