Hey,

I'm currently using a 4:3 19" TFT monitor with a 17" crt as a second display. The CRT has packed up due to a power spike and old age, so i was thinking of replacing it.

The current trend seems to be widescreen for gaming, why is this? Finally what is the equivalent size for a widescreen monitor to sit next to a 19" not widescreen? I did some playing on the TV calculator and got 23.3"!!!!

Would I be best going for 23" or 24" considering cheap is my priority and I'm not a hugely serious gamer.
