Ok, I got a 20 inch flat screen crt off ebay. After about the first hour of use, the screen got all out of focus and blurry, and since then a good 5 or 10 minutes after i turn it on again it does the same thing. This sounds like the problem I've seen where older crt monitors focus controls stop working right, and you'd have to open the crt up and adjust them to fix it (which I'm not planning to do). However, two things don't seem to fit:
1. It's not super old, january 2002 is the date on it
2. it works for a little bit and then stops; I was under the impression the no focus issue was something that would occur immediately.
I already played around with the refresh rate, resolution, moire, brightness/contrast, etc., and nothing helped. I will probably be able to return or exchange it, but I want to see if there's something else it could be.
edit: oh yeah did moire too so don't suggest that
