My 17″ LCD monitor just died
My BenQ T701 17″ LCD monitor just died this morning. I turned on my computer and my monitor, and the display showed the desktop for one second, and then it went black. I tried it on another computer, and it didn’t work there, either. So now my monitor is being sent to BenQ, courtesy of CompuSmart (which was where I bought the monitor.) It should take about 3 weeks, and hopefully not any longer. I’m forced to work with my Samsung SyncMaster 151s 15″ LCD now, which I took from my Windows XP computer.
I suppose that my monitor dying now is a better time than never, since I’ll be away in Europe for a week and a bit in a few days. Once I return, WWDC will have taken place, and I’ll then be able to make my final decision on which MacBook to buy for university in September.

How old was your broken monitor?
Adam,
It was only a year old, which is the strange part. My 15″ is 3 years old, and it’s still fine. I’m thinking that the problem with the 17″ must be with the power supply for it.
It was your Mac Mini’s fault. Too much Apple-ness for your monitor.
Get a Dell notebook, the XPS M1210. It’s lighter and costs the same as a comparable MacBook.
