The 20E20 was the only monitor I considered using, you can't say no to a 20" Trinitron that can be had for ~$150. But the more I thought about it, I decided it was just too small, especially for the vertical games. We have one in our test lab at work, and I tried to imagine playing some vertical games on it in my cab, and I just couldn't justify it. Even with the great resolution and such.
But, I was considering getting one to use as a 2nd monitor on my desktop PC. Seeing your review and noting that it's not flexible with refresh rates makes me think twice about that thought. I guess that lack of flexibility, coupled with the fact that most people think it only works on Sun boxes, is what brings the price down so much.
Anyway thanks for the info. I'm going the TV route, but for anyone who's going the monitor route, that's the monitor to go with.
