[oclug] OT: asking price

[Andy Civil]

TTE has a 17 inch, Samsung, 600:1 8ms 3-year-warranty LCD panel at 
$209(+tax) so I guess that's your standard.

17-Inch Samsung 701N LCD Panel
3 Year Depot Warranty 	[Add to Cart]
Samsung 701N LCD Panel

8ms Response Time
Silver in colour
Brand new units with a 3-year carry-in depot warranty.
Warranty: Manufacturer
Condition: New, Retail 	Availability: In Stock, Bells Corners 	Price: 
$209.00

P.S. you can get a 19 inch widescreen currently from Futureshop for $199

P.P.S. I'm not sure there's so much market for the 17 inch any more, 
because the 19 inch and bigger really don't cost so much extra...
