Advanced Warning and help required.

[Mikeus Caesar]

This is an advanced warning that i may suddenly disappear for a while within the next month or so. The reason being that my monitor, which some of you may know is dying of old age, has suddenly taken a turn for the worse. As well constantly squashing in on itself about 3-5cm top and bottom for minutes on end, twice in the last hour the entire thing has squashed itself into a thin line half a centimetre wide, and if this happens again and is permanent, it's going to be pretty hard reading the .Org.

I believe my monitor is in my death throws. The sooner i raise funds for a new one, the better.

Or, my fellow .Orgahs can help the situation by occasionally combing ebay.co.uk for cheap monitors under £50 within 100 miles of Huddersfield. If you spot one, make sure it's 19" across or more, and doesn't have any defects whatsoever, even if it claims to be a minor one. My current monitor had a tiny insignificant defect since i bought it, and now it's ended up like this.

So remember .Orgahs, keep your eyes on Ebay.co.uk and don't worry if i disappear!

I found two monitors on tigerdirect.com.

This one is refurbished, 50 USD after rebates
New, 70 USD after rebates

Their shipping policy is pretty vague, but indicates that they can ship overseas. I would imagine shipping & handling would not be unbearable, but I don't know for sure.

They seem to be worth investigating.

And maybe this should be moved to the new forum?

I like the 'Famous Brand' monitor. Looks pretty good, and sounds pretty good, with a ridiculously high resolution.
