    'llo All, just getting used to the 'net...

Here's my problem: (don't we all...)
   I have a 2000, 3 megs ram, etc... the works.

I haven't upgraded to the new Agnes yet, but will soon (3 months or so).
My vintage 1080 is slowly fizzing out. It's almost 4 years old now, and
the screen is beginning to bend at the bottom (not bad, livable) and the
picture shorts out every so often, to the point that I have to turn it
off (until the power light goes back on, and then out), and then back
on.  This can happen every 5 minutes or every 1/2 hour.. but it happens
a lot.  I've heard it needs  new flyback transformer.  How much is this
beast, and is it worth it?  I would really like to get a Nec 3D,
Princton UltraSync, and DiamondScan.  This is about $500, and I get a
new monitor, compatibility with the new chips (also A-Max, which I use
often) (the and above should have been >OR<, I'm not LOADED!)
   Opinions? Yes, I *AM* strapped for money (school), so I want to make
the best *LONG* term BUT econonical step.
   (my other option would be to Keep the color, use for Games/color
stuff and get a MultiSync GS (white) for Non-color things (which I do
more and more, I'm finding)  If I do this, is there a way to put the RGB
image on BOTH monitors at once?  I haven't found a way to do this
yet...)

                Thanks,
