I forgot to tell you one of the things that happened this weekend. My daghter has been using my dinosaur of a 19 inch monitor for over a year now. It’s been an awesome monitor, it’s only draw back is that it’s an old CRT monitor so it weighs a TON! We’ve known for a while now that we were going to have to replace it sooner or later, but we were hoping later rather than sooner. She was sitting yesterday playing a game when the monitor went black. Since it has done that before, we really didn’t think much of it, it usually would just come back on by just powering it off, then turning it back on. This time, we weren’t so lucky. No matter what we did, the monitor simply was not going to come back on, PERIOD!
So, I started looking around online, trying to find the best deal possible on a new monitor for her. Although I’ve shopped for different computer accessories many times, I honestly had no clue there were so many different brands of monitors. The one that I found that seemed to be the best monitor for the money was a viewsonic monitor that I found online. If I had the time to wait for delivery I’d have snagged it up in a heartbeat. But since it was one of those immediate needs, I ended up going to a local store and picking up one for more than the online one cost. But she’s happy, so I’m happy…LOL!
