• Viewsonic G225fB $30-40 is it worth it?

Well pretty much the title explains it all. I bought two E90fb's for $2 yesterday, but the vga cables had been cut and frankly it's a mess to repair it though I am almost done. I'd like a bigger monitor and this seems like a pretty good deal, is it worth it? The seller says there is no discoloration or burn in and it had been only used for a few years to graphic design.
A CRT monitor for $30-40? Hell, I'd say invest in an LCD or two, they're much better than those prehistoric monsters. At least, that's what the G225fB on Neweggs is.

Well I guess I'll go for it then. Did a little more research and it turns out the monitor came out around 2007 and if it didn't die when you first got it it is a beast. Can't wait for 1600x1200 @ 100hz, I think 2048x1536 @ 75hz might be a bit overkill.
