The Incredible Shrinking Monitor There's just never enough desk space to go around.

Your desk may look a lot like mine. Somewhere under the papers,flat-bed scanner, books and magazines is a mini-tower and amonitor. Unfortunately, there's just never enough desk space togo around. Now that computers are taking up less room, however,monitors are following suit. The new Panasonic PanaSync SL70i17" is a "short-length" monitor with a shorter backthat takes up less room (not to be confused with thinner LCDmonitors).

The CRT SL70i only takes up as much room as a 14-inch monitor.That's not as small as an LCD, but at only $379, it's muchmore affordable. A good .25mm dot pitch, 16-inch-diagonal viewingarea and 1,600 x 1,280 maximum resolution make for a versatilemonitor. The three-year warranty covers parts, labor and the CRT,with the first year including on-site service. Click over tohttp://www.panasonic.com forthe full rundown.
