This is straight from Dells Website, are crt's really measured this way? if so, it is something new to me![:eek: :eek:](https://icrontic.com/resources/icrontimoji/eek.gif)

Edit: I just went and measured a 17" CRT, and guess how big it was from screen corner to screen corner.... a little under 17", imagine that.

I know it includes some of the plastic, but the tube doesnt extend all the way to the edge of the plastic, and I know so, because the cotrols for the monitor are there, making it impossible for the tube to extend that far.
I know that if you buy a 17" crt, you wont get a full 17" viewable, but you dont loose much, maybe 1/4"-3/8" on each side, give or take, but dell is illustrating that you loos 2-3"...bs.
My 21" Dell CRT has about 20" viewable and that's nowhere near the outside of the plastic casing. It's hype.
The CRT was a viewsonic e90 or something...
