@wove I really want to get a Quadra 840 someday :P I bet that computer looks so good with that monitor! I bet System 7 screams on that Mac.

@ovalking I googled that monitor, and it looks absolutely beautiful. I found this post on reddit with a lovely picture hehe ;)

I really wish I had a nice Apple 17" CRT monitor. I have the color monitor that came with the Apple IIGS, but that's a pretty small one.

I can't blame anyone for using a flat-panel display, since CRTs take up so much room, but I personally love the nostalgic aesthetic of them.

Speaking of which, here's a screenshot of the Lone Gunmen in their headquarters, surrounded by '90s computers and CRTs:

I get it with using lcd panels but I’m the same, maybe nostalgia but I do like a crt but you’re right they take up a lot of space. I think the 17 inch is the best compromise, the 19 was to big. For me anyway.
