4:3 aspect ratio LCD monitors appear to be harder and harder to find since
the main market is for 16:9 widescreen monitors these days.

They're commodities at this point, even a 19" is considered "small" on a

that outlet store really has awful prices on monitors. they all seem to
be more then the cost of new and they only have a 90 day warranty.
here's a new $99 + $0 shipping monitor with one year warranty.
http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&oc=IN1910N
the $99 deal on the 20" dell monitor expired... but it will be back
eventually.
