    Gateway's FPD2185W: a 21in widescreen 2005fpw killer!

    Well, it's definitely the DVI connection on my monitor that's conked out. And because Circuit City's return policy is only FOURTEEN DAYS on any computer-related items (and I bought mine a whopping 27 days ago), I have to go through Gateway to get it exchanged. Unbelievable.

    Gateway's FPD2185W: a 21in widescreen 2005fpw killer!

    Add me to the list of people who can hear the buzz very loud and clear. It's barely perceptible on 89 brightness, noticeable at 87, and annoying at 85 (haven't noticed any difference when I adjust the contrast, maybe I should try that too). Glad to know it's not only my monitor. That said, I...
