The problem with flickering pixels on gray/black backgrounds happened again today. The monitor is also making an annoying buzzing sound from the rear of the monitor. I just got off the phone with OfficeMax to arrange for a replacement to be shipped.

PowerRanger- I experienced this problem again today (second time in the 24 hours since I got the monitor). I just called OfficeMax to arrange for a replacement to be shipped to me. Did you get a replacement? Does it have the same problem? GedMan

The price went up. Now $62.99 - 10 rebate - 10 coupon (which I found in the SD forum). $42.99 shipped is still a great deal. In for 1. GedMan

Check out Geauga Savings Bank. They have a Money Market account at 5.25% (balances between $25,000 and $99,000). They allow business accounts and the Money Market account comes with free checks to withdraw money easily. Geauga Savings Bank GedMan

eLoan does not allow business accounts (which is what I need). Otherwise, they look like a great option for personal accounts. GedMan
