Depending on the type of Monitor, it is better to turn it off and back on every weekend/night. The Ikegami(sp) had a poor MTBF rating for the power supply and a not much better one for the Monitor itself. We had Ickky's dying after about a year because we left them on with screenlock running. Now we turn them off a night and on weekends. Screenlock is run when user's log off and a screenblank like substitute is being written to blank and lock idle screens after so many minutes.... -tank- -- #include <disclaimer.h> /* nobody knows the trouble I .... */
