I think this old monitor has gone though 6 towers...I keep on saying I'll get a flat screen when it dies out but it just keeps going...

My first computer I had didn't even have a 15" screen. It was more like a 13". So you can imagine when I got my first 17"screen. I thought I had died and gone to heaven right then and there.
