Well...it died X_X...

My old monitor is gone. And I had to get a new one in its place. It was fairly easy to set up but I'm not quite happy with it yet. It's a 20 inch one X_X...and it's set to 1600 X 900. Which means my poor Yotsuba wallpaper is all stretched out of shape. It's a widescreen monitor but it was cheap-ish. We'll see how it goes. It's fair so far but it's very different. It's a lot lighter. It doesn't run hot and make ozone like the old one though so that's definitely a plus. Be online soon, hopefully.

Details on the New Monitor

In it's place, I have gotten a 20 inch (the smallest at Best Buy) LG monitor. It's now 1600 X 900 @_@ resolution. Which feels just utterly insane by comparison to what I had before (1024X768 ---the monitor looked like a crunched piece of paper). Clearly the CRT tube was dying...it was also pumping out ozone I think. The monitor is so much different but it's a good kind of different so far. I need to take some time and get used to it.

What's the best way to clean an LCD screen? I just had laptops and I tried to be gentle to them when I could.

The monitor is kinda on the bright side but I don't know.

The model is LG W2061 (and I'm using the analog cable that came with it but I think I have a DV-1 output. I'm not geeky enough to really understand if this would make a difference.)

PS - My main complaint right now is that the monitor is kinda bright for my eyes and when I put it on black it gets these faint, swirly lines from the top left to the bottom right. They don't move so much as stay where they are an undulate. It barely shows but it's still something to note

*fidgets*...

I'm just gonna need to mess with it till I find the right arrangement...

It's a lot like being on my laptop again. The screen feels dark at one end and too bright at the other :-p.
