I would like to add to CAREFULLY check the warranty about dead pixels. Dead pixels are very common! Many TFT brands share the panel tech. So if Sony uses panel XYZ and brand-you-never-heard-of uses panel XYZ and has some warranty but cheaper, go for brand-you-never-heard-of. If you have the space just get a good/expensive Sony/IIyama CRT imho. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
