Please give your opinions. Thank you. > >Candy Candy: I have a Gateway 2000 Vivitron 1776 17" monitor made by Sony that has the sharpest picture I have ever seen and a little problem, it overheats and blinks out after about 30 minutes of use, a thermal-overload circuit breaker trips and off it goes. I found out by experimentation that a regular 12" fan blowing into the side of it keeps it going continuously. I'm keeping the monitor. Brian Winter brianw@xmission.com
