Hi, I recently bought a cheap system from PC Practice (OS less) and a monitor from dark star imports. The monitor was a HP 21 inch (ex lease, 3 yr old) for 340+gst. Maybe it was too much for a monitor, but I like plenty of screen real estate.

Agreed. Trademe has the same problem. people have bought a computer 2 years ago, (for some price which is much higher than the equivalent now). On selling it, they are unwilling to take a quarter of the purchase price.
