    loveshek,

    which model Samsung broke down on you, and what was wrong with it? I have an old Sam 770 bought 4/00 and it's still running great, though it's handed down to the kids now. I'm using 4 Samsung 191T, and it's fantastic.

    If you don't want to trust Samsung, then you need to find another OEM. There are only a few producers of LCD, so most brands are just rebrands, you'll need to find out who's LCD they are using.

    Yes I forgot the model # or name but both of them I couldnt turn on again (not at the same time tho)

    Some people here and my friends say the new Samsung LCDs are good...like you said

  8. i have 4 17" LCD Samsung Monitor Model: 170s TFT for ONLY $500 each from www.samsclub.com

    you can get TWO of these for the price of one 19".

    THESE BABIES KICK SOME MAJOR A$$! CLEAR, BRIGHT SCREEN & CRISP TEXT.

  9. Faster,

    That's not bad on the samsungs. I was looking at the extended warranty thing for $54. Turns the 3 yr manufacturers warranty into a 6 year repair/replacement .

    A general question for all:

    What's the estimated life on a monitor of this type?

    Thanks in advance.

    Later,
