You could buy another 2nd hand monitor for the price of repair which could be of the order of $80, more if a new line output transformer was required as they are $70-$80 or so. A month or 2 ago good 17" monitors at Turners auctions about 4 years old were going for $70, that gives you an idea of what can be obtained.	Terry Porritt (14)
