This monitor is most definately a fire hazard. It shoots sparks out from
the back, it makes all sorts of crackling noises, and bright flashes of
light reflect off the wall from behind it.
No way am I donating this to someone :-)
I understand there are components in a crt monitor that are considered
hazardous waste as well as materials that can be recycled. So I figured
recyle instead of dumpster.
I'd rather not go through DataDoctors - I refuse to do business with
people who preach "linux is a joke" (heard 'em have a grand old time
bashing linux on their radio show many months back).
I'll be checking out AZStrut, but other suggestions are still welcome.
Thanks,
Bart
