    anyone seen a Samsung XIOD monitor?

    www.scan.co.uk/todayonly have the Saumsung 19" CRT XIOD (29EF19) for only £138. It has a good spec (http://www.samsunguk.com/item/user_m...id=20021008106) but I can't find any reviews anywhere.

    Does anyone have any experience of these? Is to too good to be true?

    Thanks

    No idea but I've had good experience of other Samsung monitors.

      Thanks. Me too. After a tip-off on the 17" ones always being good, I think I have to go for it. Shame about the mobo/cpu, but at least they'll be cheaper when I get to it

        Hmm, by the time you add delivery, memory for the camera, & a HSF, that cheap monitor costs over £220. There should be a law against it

        BTW, it has a 0.25 dot pitch - I'm looking forward to some clarity at home

              Actually the shipping was the std £10+VAT. I was trying to spread it across a few things

                Has Scan's shipping gone up recently? I thought it was still 7-ish quid incl VAT???

                  I think they have a £7 rate but only if the item weighs less than a SmartMedia card

                              Well I'm staring at it now. Lovely. Just a little moire to tweak. Shielding is a little poor, needed to move it a few inches from the other monitor.
