[SCCC] Computer Monitor

[Wild Bill]

This LG LED Monitor<http://www.lg.com/hk/it-product/monitor/LG-home-E2041T.jsp>is
what I ended up buying Best Buy for $160. Which by the way wasn't the
"Best Buy" because after I returned home I found that Fry's had the same
thing for twenty bucks less. Best Buy was straight up about their price
matching offer and refunded me the difference with the tax difference
factored in :-) Nice little monitor for $140...

I used the extisting cabling as it already was loaded with ferrites and I
didn't see any point of taking them out. I noticed right away that I didn't
have the *noise *I had with the previous two monitors that had been in
place. So far, so good!

All the best,

Wild Bill

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams!
