Hello,

To conserve deskspace in a dual monitor situation, I'd like to get the smallest CRT or LCD available. Is there anything smaller than the standard 14" LCD or CRT? My hopes are that there's a 7" or so available. The small monitor's purpose is for viewing a presentation that is on the same video cable with a video splitter and running a plasma screen (so the user doesn't have to acutally go to the plasma screen to see what's running).

The small monitor is not for day to day use, which is why I want to go even smaller than 14". It won't even be used for working on documents or any other standard activity. It's just to watch and monitor the presenation running on a plasma screen in another location in our building.

Thanks!
 
You might want to look at POS equipment manufacturers for something like this.

I ended up with several 9" mono VGA as surplus from NCR POS. No bases as they were for pipe mount, but they sure cut down on the space requirements for those apps where you need to monitor something.

Any advice I give is my best judgement based on my interpretation of the facts you supply. Help increase my knowledge by providing some feedback, good or bad, on any advice I have given.
 
If money is no object you can get any size you want.
Here is one that goes down to 5" One thing you will find is that if you wan to save money, 14-15" is probably where you will find the lowest price. From there as you get smaller or bigger the prices go up.
 
This is exactly what I was looking for--thanks to you both!
