Hi.
Does anyone else think it might be worth making a wiki page with a list of kit people have available? If people think it's a good idea I'll start one.
Which is my way of introducting the cheeky question: Does anyone have a spare monitor they could sell me cheap? Mine died a while ago and I'd rather not buy a brand new one due to a combination of environmental concern and meanness. They seem to go pretty cheaply on ebay but I'd like to avoid the postage cost if possible.
Also, can anyone recommend something to do with my old one? As far as I can tell no-one wants to repair it.
Cheers,
Joe

How good a monitor are you after? I have an old 14" Multisync II you can have for free, I think the maximum resolition is probably only 800x600. Or I have a mono monitor that can do 1024x768.

Like you I have a couple of cheap (as in free) low res 14" units kicking about. I also have 19" models usually starting at £20 and going up to £50 for a really good flat faced Sony. Not much in the 17" range at the moment (they are quite popular)
However I am in Bury St Edmunds (I do travel around a bit but depending on where you are you could be in for a wait until I am in that area) postage cost of the 19" units (particularly the Sony's) would be very high I am guessing.

I got one 17" monitor at home which is currently laying on the floor doing nothing for the past few months (We're all laptop users in the house now ;) I basically want it out of the house now.. let me know if you are interested.
