sub $300 17" LCD

Just to go with the sub-$500 Mac, now are the sub-$300 17" LCD. I bough a 17" Princeton for 349 CHF (that's $304, taxes included) 4 weeks ago to replace a 17" Enzo CRT. The colors could be better, but it's so much smaller and comfortable.

This increases the value of a sub-$500 box.

Circuit City has some good deals on LCDs. Best buy had similar prices on Sonys, Viewsonics, etc..

Last week they had a Samsung 17" LCD for $279 after rebate. Only downside is it has a .294 pitch. Now it's $349. I was going to grab one to use with the iBook and a full-size keyboard at the house until that. Best Buy had a few nice 17" ones for less than $350 last week, including Sony & Viewsonic brands with good specs.


Circuit City has (as of 01.03.2005 - 2300EST):
  • 17" Nec for $299 after rebate. What I'll be buying unless I find a good deal on a similar 19". (( .264 pitch ))
  • 19" Sony one for $349 after rebates. (( .294 pitch ))
  • 17" Samsung for $349 after rebate. (( .264 pitch ))
  • 19" Liquid Video for $349 after rebate. (( unspecified pitch ))
  • 19" Samsung for $449 after rebate. (( .294 pitch ))
  • 23" Sony for $1999 after rebate. (( .25 pitch ))
