I can't quite manage that long, although I do still have my original Amiga 1500 monitor that works (not used for a while though) along with a couple of (as yet untested) Philips CM 8833 units. My main monitors are 1998 vintage Iiyama Vision Master Pro 400s, which are nice as the have BNC input as well as D-sub, so I can have occaisional use machines connected as well if needed an switch using the on screen menus. Sadly the one on the right failed last night - and appears to be working again this morning - so I think I'll either be dropping to a single 17" screen or needing a new one soon. It was a replacement for another identical unit that started playing up, and I still have that, so there's a temptation to try and combine the two into a working one (the other had colour issues, this seems to be a power problem). Likely not worth the hassle, but you never know! -- Paul Tansom | Aptanet Ltd. | http://www.aptanet.com/ | 023 9238 0001 ====================================================================== Registered in England | Company No: 4905028 | Registered Office: Crawford House, Hambledon Road, Denmead, Waterlooville, Hants, PO7 6NU -- Next meeting: Blandford Forum, Wednesday 2011-03-02 20:00 Meets, Mailing list, IRC, LinkedIn, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ How to Report Bugs Effectively: http://goo.gl/4Xue
