In a word: don't. The downstairs lab here used to have 48 apex machines with ctx monitors. Gues which component failed on half of them within the first year or two :) Also, don't buy a monitor you haven't seen unless it's labeled sony or apple. Oh, and see the *exact* model; some manufacturors have two different neearly identical models sith a couple of hundred dollars difference in price. With both on, you can tell them apart at a glance. I'd actually take a smaller monitor with better quality over the larger monitor every time. If you have to buy "cheap" to get the size you're looking at, I'd go for the next size down rick --
