Iiyama Vision Master Pro 410 (Just like I've got infront of me at the moment) will meet your requirements.
I really do rate Iiyama monitors, great to look at, really flat clear screen and great support should you need it.

I think I'm getting a UltraScan 1000HS from dell. It has the Trinitron tube, is flat panel..yada yada yada
and, It looks like I may be getting it for under 200 too.

the way trinitrons work well I thought this is the way the larger ones worked but I guess it carries to the 17inch monitors as well.
Like my 21 inch diamondtron monitor (same as triniton) to get the crisp bright HI quality image they use 3 firing tubes instead of 1. In the areas that the different firing tubes connect the image is a very fine line. Iv had this 21 incher for a month or 2 now and I dont even notice the lines unless I specifically look for it.

17" monitors and above have the two lines.
On the Iiyama in front of me fist is situated about 4" from the top.
Second is about 4" from the bottom.
Very fine lines, dark grey in colour that are about 1/2 - 1 pixel deep.
Only really show themselves on a white background and then only if your not used to seeing them.
15" trinitron/diamondtron screens just have the 1 line, about 2/3 of the way down the screen.

I have Sony 17" monitor and it has 2 really really really thin lines. But I don't even notice them most of the time until I look hard for it.
well, I got it
190 after shipping.
I've used trinitron monitors before, I never noticed it
this 1 has a miscolored pixel.

I think Trinitron/Diamondtron screens can have up to 5 dead or mis-coloured pixels before they are classed as throw away.
Just one pixel out isn't too bad at all.

no, this is my normal CRT monitor...
I don't know about the trinitron I'm getting...but if there are bad pixels, I'll return it.
I saw a Trinitron today, and looked for the lines. I saw them immediately on the white screen, but I honestly don't think I'll be too worried about it...I'll learn to ignore it pretty quickly

Like I said, don't worry about the lines. They are only on Aperture Grill tubes (from Sony or Mitsubishi). The main difference between the AG units and other models is the AG mesh that is used. CRTs have used a "shadow mask" method for lining up the pixels on the monitor, whereas the AG units have a fine threaded mesh that runs from top to bottom. The 2 thin lines across the monitor hold the mesh in position. The mesh allows for a brighter monitor without the fuzzy "bleedover" of image from one pixel to the other. Hence, the sharp text that is somewhat uniform at any point of the monitor. The lines are smaller if the dot pitch is smaller, so older 17" and 15" units will be more pronounced than the current ones ranging from .22 to .25 depending on the model.

clutch is right the ag or fd trinitron has always had it.
it has to do with the way sony makes it's tubes. been like that for years. i always have sony trinitron... just switched to this monster 21 incher. (i think it's cooking my face)
btw sony does make a trinitron monitor (seemless) but they arent available to joes like u and me, but if u buy a silicon graphics workstation u can get one.

Give Hitachi a try! I have a Hitachi CM772ET. Though it's a 19" CRT, I beleive they have smaller models. And their dot pitch is the smallest I know (0.21 mm).
Also, it's FLAT tube.
oh! By the way....

Don't ever try 1600x1200 in a 17" monitor. You will not be able to see anything. In my 19" Monitor, I'm using 1280X1024 @100hz, and that's enought for me.

I found the monitor and bought it
I know how small 1600x1200 is on a monitor, it doesnt bother me
I just look at icons anyway, not the text.

just thought I'd end this post properly.
Got it. Plugged it in. Played around. Fell in love.
I love Trinitron
the lines? who cares.
that little multimode button over on the left is really nice, brightens up my CS so I can see that bastard CT at the end of the sewer when the lights are out
