[BUGA] Functional 21" monitor to give away

[Greg 'groggy' Lehey]

I have a functional iiyama "Vision Master 21" monitor to give away.
It's one of the two on the right at http://www.lemis.com/grog/.  As I
say, it works fine.  I'm running it at 1600x1200 pixels, 94 kHz
horizontal, 75 Hz vertical.

So why am I giving it away?  It's old (9 years) and no longer in
perfect condition.  Three years or so it gave some alarming sounds
from the high-voltage supply, and I took it in for repair.  The
repairers threw up their hands in horror at the way the electronics
were put together and returned it unrepaired.  On return I discovered
that it has great difficulties turning on the power; it turns off
after a few seconds and won't turn back for about 15 seconds.  After
about 4 such attempts, though, it works.  I've solved the problem by
not turning it off, and like that it's worked fine for the last few
years.

So why am I giving it away?  It won't last much longer.  Neither will
the supply of CRT monitors, and currently I'm not prepared to switch
to LCD, so I've bought a couple of new monitors.  I could keep them
and wait for the iiyama to finally die, but why do that?  So it's
going begging.

More information on request.
