While it can be repaired, the cost of repair will be about the same as a mid-line LCD monitor. Should I bite the bullet and get the 10 year old repaired, or get a LCD unit? have a read of this then maybe you'll make up your own mind http://www.dansdata.com/gz021.htm you may have a freecycle group in your area - it may be worth asking politely there if anyone has a comparable CRT they'd let you have too - not long back i was seeing 20 and 21 inchers being offered fairly often! http://www.freecycle.org/ "The Freecycle Network™ is made up of 4,650 groups with 6,243,000 members across the globe. It's a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving (& getting) stuff for free in their own towns. It's all about reuse and keeping good stuff out of landfills"
