What do you think of my monitor?

[Madhatter4]

Ok Ive had this monitor for a few years and have never had any problems with it. I was just wondering what you people think of my NEC Technologies NEC FE991SB - 18 inches.... on a scale of 1 to 10 what would you rate it? In all honesty the next monitor I purchase will be a flat panel/LCD the only reason I did not get one last time was because I was told that at the time CRT monitors were ALOT better for gaming......

It's a superb high-end Diamondtron (aperture grill) technology monitor. Aperture grill is arguably the best monitor technology and puts LCDs to shame. Do not change this monitor until it dies on you! If you ever move to an LCD you will be disappointed.
