    I just plugged her into the back of my laptop. No fannying around - it worked straight away.

    It's about five years old now but the pic hasn't degraded from when I bought it. All these threads hailing processors and graphic cards, I thumb my nose at them and instead worship the marvel that is my monitor.

    How highly do you rate your monitor as a piece of hardware?
    I plan on beating him to death with his kids. I'll use them as a bludgeon on his face. -

    --Good for them if they survive.

    I have a 19" Packard bell monitor.

    To me the monitor / mouse are very important, it's the bits you actually use.

    I have one of those MS Optical trackball thingy mouse.

    both the ones i could use seem to be old and dieing, so i have to do a lot of playing with the colours and stuff to make it work . that gets really annoying switching between tv and monitor



    the picture doesn't really show my problem that well but i spent a good two minutes making it

    My monitor has never misbehaved but it requires some electricity which i think it should pay for itself..

    No it's not a monitor, just a mouse.

    meh. (where's the "STFU manker" option?) j/k
    as RPerry said, a monitor can really be shit w/o proper hardware to support it

    i have a LG 17", less than a year old, it's great, sharp picture, and true flatness, then my brother got a 19" LCD a few months ago, now i think my monitor is crap

    but i kinda agree with JP, my keyboard is my favourite piece of hardware, i have a Logitech Office Internet keyboard, it has more shortcuts than i need, and it's just so comfortable to type with

    i vote: meh the fuck up, manker
