If you want the best out of your purchase you should consider an Aperture
Grille monitor (Trinitron/Diamondtron) which is far superior to shadow mask.

At a price like �120 for 19" the components (tube etc) used are probably the
cheapest available and I'd be surprised if it lasted two years.

Remember: you get what you pay for.
