I have a couple of very old BenQ monitors at work. They still work perfectly fine. That is a big plus to me. I also like ACER brand monitors very very much!

"We came, we saw, we kicked it's ass!" -Ghostbusters
"What a knock about of pure fun that a was!" -Ghostbusters, same scene (edited version)
A little known fact: There are 2 versions of the 1st Ghostbusters film. They actually made both versions so no one would need to edit a toned down version for television later.

Sometimes you're the pigeon, Sometimes you're the statue-Steven Tyler
My wife likes the above quote. I tried to find the author but I could not find out who originally said this, but Steven Tyler said it during American Idol....I don't watch American Idol, but did see the commercial and saw him stating this. Either way it is true.
