Thats really great and everything, but I do have atleast one monitor in eugene, its really out here that I could use a monitor. If Bob can use it, and doesnt need it when I get back (could be years, I have no idea....) but It doesnt look like Ill be back anytime too soon. Its weird that there are so many places that wont take a decent working monitor! I can understand about some placed charging money, as they probably get a lot of dead monitors (or ones that work for 5 minutes...) and end up having to recycle them at thier expense...
If my car sells (which it hasnt... even though I lowered the price) Ill probably get a laptop, the I wont need this monitor on all the time, and can move it around... P.S. Anyone looking for a fast car? I have a vintage 1982 Mitsubishi Starion Turbo for sale... only $1,500. I rarely drive it, and have restored most of it. It has some minor issues that would be good to fix, but works fine as it is. Its fast, and has decent speakers (6) on the stock stereo, power everything (even windows), and a halfway decent paint job.
