'Today was good day... i didn't even have to bring out my AK' (ice cube lyrics)

Yes! Today i found a 19" monitor in a container, which belongs to an Architecture Bureu (next door to my girlfrinds job).
I went in and asked the guys what was wrong with it, and the owner said that it belonged to one of the guys, and that it was shutting down all the time because of heat (warm swedish summer yes ;) )
Well i brought it home to give it a try, and then in the monitor menu I noticed that 'Auto Power Saving' was ON! i turned it off and its been working like a clock now for 7 hours :D
The architect said that the guy who's monitor it was got a brand new TFT screen :S LOL (I smell internal scam)
Well... here it is! :D

hehe... well, no! I already have two 19" monitors and my headshots are running fine :lol:
I'll use this one for dual-screen work for a while and then maybe after a month or two i'll try to sell it.

Hahaha, lucky you :)

Some people eh, dont even know how to use a monitor :)

My friend installs cable broadband, a customer went without sound for about 2 months because my friend had aparantly broke the guys soundcard while installing a network card, my friend went to take a look and pressed the power switch to ON on the speakers :)

Hope a fool swings my way in the near future :)

Thats not for me to decide: I played with terrible ping for 2 weeks recently... could not understand what was wrong... After 2 weeks a friend of mine asked me if I had the correct connection settings... It said "ISDN"... I have cable... I told the service department of my service provider my bitter view of life several times... and it was error 40 ( Error located 40cm in front of the screen ) all the time. :oops:
