My previous monitor was made by NEC and lasted nearly 3 years of almost constant use, but it was only 15" and could only manage 1024x768

Now I'm looking forward to 1280x1024

@corrie - I got this as my early birthday present - My parents don't have a limitless wallet and I don't currently have any employment or income to subsidise any additional cost...

As it is it cost about ?186 with delivery, so that's approximately $325 :ermm:

It's a decent monitor - I have no room to put it elsewhere, and I accept that 17" is as big as I can currently go - When I have a job in 2 or 3 years time when that monitor expires I will be able to buy a 50" 6250 x 5000 resolution monitor, but until that time I'd rather have a nice 17" display that works than a blank space on my desk because I was too stuck up and childish to accept anything less than the all-singing all-dancing automatic-coffee-making monitor with little bells that play a tune...
