How old is your monitor? It may be time for that flat panel display you've been wishing for....
I had this conversation (over the phone, no less) the other day:
Friend: "My monitor is blueish in the corner, and has a green spot in the middle."
Me: "Take the speaker away from the monitor."
Friend: "There are no speakers near the monitor."
Me: "Take the speaker away from the monitor."
Friend: "I swear, the speakers are 5 ft away...."
Me: "Okay, then, what is next to your monitor?"
Friend: "My subwoofer... OOOOOhhhhhhh. Thanks."

I wish...but the prices are falling so fast that I don't mind waiting!!! You totally called that one! Ha! Every week I pull out the best buy and compUSA fliers to look...hehe - I wish I could short 'em!!
The monitor that went nuts on me this AM isn't that old - it's about one year. It's a 17" "Samtron" that I got at best buy for $90 after rebate, so it's definitely served me well.
But what I can't figure out is how it made the computer restart?? I don't have any speakers within 3 feet...very strange stuff...
