	Hmmm, Don't know much about Princeton Graphics but I've seen two
different brands (Sceptre and Inomax) of $200 17" monitors in action and I
can tell you they were complete crap. They had bubble screens that were out
of focus in places and a 0.27 pitch that looks coarser than my NEC's 0.28. 
It was like using a television for a monitor.  One of them would periodically
begin smelling strongly of something burning.   I honestly don't think you
can get a worth while 19" for $200 unless someone goofed or it is an
advertising scam.
