So anyone that has seen my computer knows I have an 8 years old (can you even fathom how old that is) CRT monitor that is so big I have to use an enormous table so all my equipment will fit. I have secretly been wanting a new one for a really time (several years). About a week ago I realized my monitor was starting to look different. The picture was bad and the color off. I thought maybe one of the girls played with the settings, but that wasn't it. When I spoke to Adam the other night he also said he noticed it so I knew it wasn't just me and my secret wanting.So there you have it. My monitor is dying and I am forced to go find a new one. What luck right? Hee hee. I am very excited since I can actually afford something much nicer than I would have been able to years ago when LCD screen were new technology. So of the things I need to do today this is on the top of the list. I actually looked at costco yesterday which had a great selection. They have a great one that will be on sale in a month, but they're not even carrying it now. I am not sure what to do as that is a month away. I sort of want one now. I am going to check of few more stores and then decide what to do. I will either be coming home with one or I will get one later. The point is...goodbye to my old gigantic monitor.
Hooray!

That is a seriously gigantic monitor. It will be so nice for you to have something new. A month seems like a long time to wait, so hopefully you'll find one today.
So happy for you! I have a huge one myself that works really well, so who knows how long it will be until I get lucky and it starts to die.
We had a problem with our old computer not connecting to the internet. They sent guys out and said it's the computer. So we had to get a new one and now we have the old giant computer for the kids to play on and a new slinky one for us. The problem is that they are both on the same L-shaped desk. One on each arm. Crazy. Hope you get a new one soon, I know the pain.
Yay! Congratulations. Isn't it nice when things that ayou don't like break and simply must be replaced? Ahhh. . .serendipity. If you haven't bought a monitor yet, have you looked at Costco.com? They have an even better selection than the stores.
heaven! seriously my brother is a computer wizz and innstead of having me on their hand me down list...my 14 year old nephew has the lastest technology, my 8 year old niece has the same (I am talking flat screens etc.), and then my 4 year old niece has a 3K lap top! is that unfair or what????? so I guess I will be waiting for a while.......oh I just found out that my brother and his wife that just graduated from the Y got a brand new MAC for graduation present.......ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh life is sweet! SO EXCITING! to get something new...hopefully you will wait for the right one!
How exciting! Especially since you can afford to get what you want. There's nothing better than that.
