What is the Responce time? (MS)
What is the Contrast Ratio? (1:XXX)
Whats the brightness?

Response time i belive is 16ms but i have heard it 12ms and 16ms so i have no idea which one it is and there is absolutly no ghosting at all in games

Contrast Ration is 600:1

Brightness is 300 cd/m²

and it also has 2 usb ports on the side.

Dell's are known to have very good quality monitors.

Since you paid $350 for it new 6 Months ago, I would say it's worth about $250-$275 now. Of course it will vary greatly depending on where you sell it.

I suppose this is the CRT because of the off size (20.1) but I would like to confirm this... CRT or LCD?

If it is LCD it would still be worth the 250$-325$ range. But you would probably get $275 (assuming great condition) from a local buyer. (because it is used..)

They do some weird things... The 50-70$ range given above is what a 20" crt would go for.

Go look on www.craigslist.com and look in your city. See what others are selling for. Then post an ad. No shipping, and the person might pick it up!

Good luck..

It is for larger metrolpoltan areas... You can find someone close by, and ship it... Or try to drop it off when you travel over that way. You could drop the price and ship it also. Ebay has buy now prices set at 279-289.. So if you want to try that... Set the price to sell no lower than ~250-270 (+20$ shipping)
