New computer monitor!

Hi all,

Well, my old CRT (tube) computer monitor had some problems
with the anti-glare coating coming off, so I decided to
replace it with a new monitor. This time, I followed
my own advice, and bought an HDTV (Sony Bravia) and
am now using it as a computer monitor. The large size of
the monitor (26" diagonal) and low resolution (768 x 1360)
means that I can position it all the way at the back of my
desk and still easily read it. The distance from the
screen to my face is about 3 feet. I've also got the
backlight turned down a bit (but not all the way -- that
would be too dark).

Hopefully this added distance will reduce my past problems
with LCD monitors. I'm also using a few items from Quantum
Products and Springlife Polarity while using the monitor,
and so far, so good... (no bad reaction)
