Our 19" CRT monitor developed a flicker, fixed by a good whack sometimes so time to get a new model. This runs at 1600x1200 and wanted at least that resolution.

24" Benq monitor
Wanted a 16:10 to get the vertical estate so have been looking at one of these for some time. Amazon warehouse had a "Used - as new" for £192 so went for it but previous owner had removed base to wall mount and didn't keep the screws so had to fork out £4 for 30 (only needed 4).

Called Amazon and a very nice lady refunded 25% (£48) as can't exchange so I have a "new" monitor (all packaging, stickers etc in place) for £148. Not too bad.
