Yesterday I vented in the Rant thread about my PC's white-screen problem. After unsuccessfully trying everything in the book to force my PC into Safe Mode, it finally dawned on me that I didn't have a PC problem at all: My monitor had bit the dust. So I ordered
this model from Best Buy and picked it up a couple of hours ago from the store. The two super-nice things about it is the (1) it's a touch-screen, meaning now I can get smudges all over my monitor just like I do my iPad, and (2) Best Buy currently has it on sale for $150 off list, which ain't bad. The downside is that it still set me back $300 some with the taxes added, meaning I could have got a monitor the same size but without touch screen bragging rights for half the price. But, hey, where's the fun in that? Besides, this beast has a killer display. There is a huge difference in video quality between this beast and my old monitor.
