Information:

Founded in March of 2007, A World Power was once one of the largest regions in Nationstates, and is currently re-building to its former glory! We as a region hold no specific political ideology, but nations organise themselves into Great Houses of likeminded individuals. The leaders of the three largest Houses form a Triumvirate which is responsible for leading the region. We believe in open elections for all citizens of our region and operate a one of the major defender forces in the game, which protects regions across Nationstates from invasion.

I have a new 19" LCD monitor! My old one died. I took it apart, found some dead capacitors, and had a repair shop replace them. Now it turns on and then blacks out after a second or two. Now I have a new (well, second-hand) one that stays on, and is much easier on my eyes than that CRT I have as backup. Plus, the price beats buying a new widescreen model.

Any ideas on how to fix that old one? Any hatred for my craigslist skillz?

Admiration for your Craiglist skillz. I may have to check there for more LCDs. I have fairly specific requirements in tems fo resolution, and DESPISE the Widescreen ratios, they don't have enough vertical distance to make a decent screen.

NewEgg is the only place I've found LCD native 1600x1200, and they're moderately expensive if they have any other decent stats. ...I've considered biting the bullet anyway, and buying several, stocking up. ;)

Yeah. I like widescreen for drafting, but games are best on a more standard screen.
