Two monitors, both have now given up the ghost, they lasted Five and Six years respectively, I think this is a pretty decent life expectation for TFT monitors, and while it could only be the back-light that has given up, I doubt it would be cost effective to replace them.
I suppose I will be without two monitors for a time, unless the Samsung that remains decides to pop too.
I suppose if I need another screen, I can connect my TV to the computer, watch movies via that setup.
