Just because I wonder, does anyone know what the cord between the screen and the computer is named? Does it have a name?

Its a vga cable.

And AJ, do you mind giving one of those to me? I don't think you really need all 7...

Being fair it is mostly VGA :)

This has been a really techy discussion! Quite cool, really. One advantage LCD has over CRT is flatness; LCD screens are easy to make flat, CRT less so. Another is power consumption, I think.
I give a little into the moment like I'm standing at the edge (I know)
That no-one's gonna turn me 'round
Just one more step, I could let go

Reset didn't work.

I don't know if it's LCD or CRT, magnet did nothing, probably LCD and it's a new screen so even more certain it's an LCD.

Buy a new one? , I don't want to spend another 300$, especially since I was planning on replacing the other screen that's broken to the point that you can't move it without the screen part falling down. There might be a chance you can repair it for less if I'm lucky, still maybe 250$ but I'm greedy enough to try.

Magnet did nothing, probably LCD as Cloudy said.



YOU BROKE IT LOL , when lcd change colors that means there damaged

Honestly, I'd say that monitors are halvsies these days on VGA and DVI. Maybe in your weird backwards countries with your cultural differences and your dated monitors you might have less DVI.

As far as things like power consumption go I couldn't care less. Your computer is never going to be more than a drop in the bucket compared to what your house is generally up to. Heat is an issue, though. 8 CRTs in one room will turn it into an oven. If you're having a LAN they're pretty much out of the question, barring expensive air conditioning.
