You really wont find a true slimline crt monitor.

Try http://www.misco.co.uk/categories/~10360~/CRTs%20-%2017%22.htm

May I ask whats wrong with the TFT?

There's nothing wrong with the tft-its just that i dont like the way that i have to get in exactly the right position to see it clearly and i cant look from an angle.Does that make sense?

Yeah as colours look washed out or in monochrome...

If you get a decent LCD with a good viewing angle you won't have problem.

I've just purchased one of these 17" Acer TFT Displays. As it is used as a television (TV Card in PC), it had to be one that didn't lose colour from the various angles it is looked at from. Anyway, the display is here http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/index.html?action=c2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZXJ2aWV3&product_uid=97709 and I would recommend it.

Not sure really as I don't have any experience of using that brand however generally speaking pc bundlers tend to go for the best priced generic model available and sometimes little touches like wide angle viewing are not part of the deal.

Hope that helps?
