WTB: 20" CRT Monitor
« on: March 11, 2013, 10:48:31 am »
Hey guys. I'm not looking for it right away, but I'm gonna need another 20" CRT monitor for another arcade project. Case condition isn't a big deal, but I need the screen to be in nice shape.

My sister is letting me slide on my last 2 months rent, so I don't have to worry about paying her right now. But, in trade, my next arcade project has to be one for her.

Sounds like you have a pretty cool sister there, Scott!

1st - she's letting ya' slide on 2 months rent, and

2nd - she's into gaming/arcade-y types of things :)

Ya thanks. I've bought a lot of parts from Happ before. But I just need a PC monitor, and an actual arcade monitor is a bit out of my price range, ha.

Interesting... but I'm not super hardware modding savvy. :(

I have an old CRT monitor that is close to 20 inches.  I'll have to check when I get home.
