I got my 19" monitor for real cheap a few years ago, and I'm kinda surprised that it shows all the colours/seperations very well.. I'm well chuffed. [:)]

Dear sir,

My 21" beast is great(monitor, get your minds out of the gutter), colours, definition etc are perfect but when I see my work on lesser monitors it looks nasty, its a sony trinitron which Ive set up correctly, Do I have to buy alot of people expensive monitors so that I will look good or am I doomed to the continous "it s too dark" comment?

Sincerely,
Guy with no room on desk :P
