Well, on Sunday my 7 year old monitor decided it couldn't take anymore. It finally blew up. I turned it on and it smelled a little of burning sulfur but I didn't think of it anymore than usual as it has been doing that for quite a while. Monitors that smell of burning sulfur is never a good sign.

When it died I couldn't help but look at my watch and say, "Time of dearth: 8:52." :p Well, Windows was partly loaded when I heard a pop from the otherside of the room. It breathed its last. I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did being it came with a HP computer. Finally got a new monitor today. A 17" Samsung LCD monitor. The actual viewable screen is SO much bigger than the old 15" (13.9" viewable) CRT monitor. There is so much room on the screen. It will take some getting used to but it sure is spiffy.
