New computer monitor.
Bert,
That is one of the reasons Harry doesn't allow his posts to be archived.
Someone came up with a program that showed that Harry was never away from
his computer for more than an hour, between the hours of 6am-11pm. This
was during the summer months, so it made it very difficult for Harry to talk
about how much time he spent "boating".

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.
