<div dir="ltr">Wowie zowie 😁 thank you so much steve! that would
be fantastic! Ironically CRTs were kind of a head of their
time. LEDs have run into a wall with black colors of all things
that the GPU has to work hard to figure out where to place. Tech
YouTubers talk about it something to do with color space that
you or the other steve probably know a lot more how that works
then I do. and yeah I'm also sometimes not as nice to my
electronics as I really should be.
<div>Do you have either my or Owens email? that way we figure
out how make arrangements for pickups or drop offs.</div>

<p>I have gone past the use of external computer monitors in
my own life/work and have a total of 3 re-homeable units I
could offer you. I don't have the specs on them in front
of me, and I can't guarantee their ruggedness, though I am
not easy on most of my gear and I have not damaged any of
these beyond some surface scratches.</p>
<p>I would be happy (ecstatic?) to gift forward one or more
of them to you, even it you go through them in a year or
two's time the same way the others gave out, as long as
you made some effort to push them forward into the
appropriate recycling stream (not even sure where old LCD
monitors go to rot/recycle)? <br>
</p>
<p>A decade or more ago I used to cringe everytime I would
see another CRT TV or Monitor in an arroyo "shot up" by my
neighbors.... it has been years since I saw a fresh
one... and to think we all used to sit inches (feet) in
front of them staring at them all day (esp. for those
boomers who were babysat as children by Captain Kangaroo
and his ilk) as a high-energy electron beam was directed
straight toward their third-eye, depending on the layer of
phosphors (I don't know how carcinogenic those where when
released during wild target practice sessions) and
*leaded* glass to protect our precious little neuronal
mass known as our brain. Oh well, most of us are "OK"
and of course, it may well be the *idea* flux coming out
of them that was the most dangerous.</p>

I think the problem is between my size and the thin

far. <br>
Where do I find the good and propper computer monitors
that ignore this asinine industry delusion that paper

Do really have to go as far back to CRTs to something
that doesn't fall over from just a fart? or is their
something more in at least this decade that's not a thin
fragile POS? <br>
