19 inch monitor or 32inch TV

Post by SpaceBooger »

Which would be better for an arcade cabinet running MAME?

The TV would be bigger, but the monitor will be prettier.

For MAME, I would go with the CRT.

I'd second Racketboy, for any console or arcade emulation you really can't beat the fuzz of a CRT. I've been emulating on my laptop and its all just a bit to crisp.
