I got mine for $799 (refurbished) at MacMall (yes, it was a calculated risk, but I absolutely had to get one of these monitors before they were all gone and no one else had them at the time; it was worth it).

David: I too have an Apple MS 17" monitor.... but perhaps you can remind me how to adjust the energy saving feature which blackens the screen after a set amount of time. It shuts down after 5 minutes of non-use, and is hard to turn back on.... taking pushing various keys and waiting sometimes 10-15 seconds. Quite a nuissance! Isn't there a simple way to adjust this feature for longer times? Thanks... -- (laforest@macshasta.com)

I think that feature should take effect after half an hour, not 5 minutes -- I can sit thinking about my work and staring at the screen for more than 5 minutes. With a NuBus or other machine, just turn off the Energy Saver control panel. David _______________ David Lawson University of Washington dal@u.washington.edu WWW: http://weber.u.washington.edu/~dal/
