For someone set on getting a CRT monitor (here's why), what are some good models to look out for? I've been scanning Craigslist and Ebay for the exceptional Sony GDM-FW900 or one of its variants (SGI GDM-FW9011 or HP A7217A) but for something like this, shipping is something worth avoiding if possible and I haven't found any in my area at a reasonable price. And of course, these are rather well-known models that are likely to be snapped up quickly.
So what are some other CRTs 21" or larger that are worth looking for but might be easier to find? I tend to think anything with a Trinitron tube should be decent but specific model numbers would be useful as I search.
I'd like to pick up three and don't care if they match. They'd be used for gaming, graphics design, video and DSLR photo editing, and "regular computing stuff." Believe it or not, I find CRTs are easier on my eyes than LCDs.
Will happily "thank" anyone who contributes good suggestions and advice for myself and anyone else who might be viewing.
