HAHAHA! Dave you're a trip! I never heard of anyone celebrating because their monitor is broken. Are those things worth getting fixed at all, or is it cheaper to just buy another? I have a nice one that I was considering taking to the shop. Just wondering if it costs an arm & a leg to get them repaired.I-468

How far did it "accidentally fall" off the desk? Or was it the roof?

Please tell me you're using another monitor to post and not just relying on muscle memory

I've been thinking mighty hard about getting a 22 inch widescreen monitor. I'm working on a 15 inch (widescreen) laptop and I'm getting tired of looking down at a small screen. I'm going to try and hold out until black friday...there always seems to be really good sales on monitors.-Steve

When one breaks,I suppose its cheeper buy a new one. Ideally a 2x20 inch would be great!Tino

But she is happy that I got such a good deal on my 22-in widescreen (from TigerDirect) that Katie is getting the same monitor too and my mom is happy because she now will get Katie's monitor. Now I have to find something for Marcia because she's feeling a little left out. The budget for this "one monitor" is quickly going out of sight.

The only problem with TigerDirect (where I accidentally upgraded to a 22" as well), is they have the 42" LCD TV with the high-def & computer inputs on the skid right beside the computer section....I dreamed about bringing one home and stapling it to the wall, except I don't want to wear sunscreen in the basement "Yes dear...I need really good VIDEO to make the AUDIO better...."Nice score Dave! It's fun opening older projects, and have them only take up the first 1/3 of the screen...and uses less power too, I bet....
