I finally bought a new monitor. OMG!!!
Why did I wait so long? I bought a LCD panel and needed a new video card too. But, the result is so incredible. My old monitor was 9 years old and dinky. Sometimes we need to treat ourselves to something totally awesome!

3. With the new monitor...
Is the site more red or more blue? When my monitor quit, I didn't realize quite the blue tint it had until I replaced it.

5. Definitely more blue....
My old monitor would turn yellow every now and then. I hit it upside the head to fix it. It had been doing that for years. Amazing I got 9 years out of it!

4. What;'d you get, what'd it cost?
I've been thinking about it, but that damned money thing is holding me back, too.

6. It's a 17" Princeton from Costco.
It was $250. Unfortunately, I needed a new video card also which was another $50. It is so worth it. I was straining my eyes more than I realized. And I can see the whole DU screen at one time now!
