Harry,
When are you ever away from your computer, typing to rec.boats to go visit
"clients", to go boating on your Parker, or to go "cruising" on your
Lobster Boat?

Heck, even when you were on vacation you spent 8 hrs a day, posting on
rec.boats.

Thanks...I'll look around for one. I've looked at the best from SONY
and Viewsonic.


The high-end Sony was the benchmark I used when shopping. A very nice
display. Unfortunately, whoever designed the stand for the current
model of the monitor is a complete idiot. No height adjustment at all
and a very awkward tilt adjustment. I stumbled upon the NEC by
accident at a Fry's Electronics store and it was all over. The display
was at least the equal of the Sony as far as my needs for digital photo
editing was concerned, even edging it out a bit, I thought But the
height and tilt adjustment were far superior on the NEC, as were the
powered USB ports, and after rebate, it was $100 less expensive than the
Sony. It probably didn't hurt that I was converting from an NEC CRT
that had served me well for over ten years. Don't even bother with the
ViewSonic products. They are not at the same level as the Sony and NEC.

I noticed that about the SONY. Actually, I'm kinda holding out for
something I like bigger than 19. One of my clients lets me use a
Viewsonic 20" when I visit his office, and that size is really nice.
I'm in no real hurry.
