Oh, maybe I didn't make clear that I wouldn't just _throw away_ any
monitor of mine that's even barely repairable, let alone functional.
My 17" ViewSonic has been doctored back into operation twice, for example.
But there comes a time when they have to be recycled.
Certainly, people should not seek to merely throw away functional or
slightly defective monitors: There are plenty of organisations that
will be very glad to accept them and find ways to use them. But that's
a wholly different discussion from what I was talking about (or trying
to).

When my monitors have collapsed, you probably won't want 'em. ;->

I can rent some and sub-lease it to you. How much can you afford? ;->
