So I'm sitting at the computer lab at school, and one of the monitors has a pink shade to it..i'm playing with the menus to try and fix it, then i hit it with the palm of my hadn on the top..it goes back to normal..haha. So if you get pissed off at your crappy equipment, smack it, and it might work.

Did you yell "HEALED!" when you did that?


They shouldn't have stopped making electronics with such features.

I think I may make my own line of electronics with the "slap feature".

The monitor line will have great components, but no adjustment buttons.

The instructions will say, slap monitor on left side 2 times to increase brightness, slap monitor on right side 2 times to increase contrast, etc, etc...

Even new monitors come with the slap feature. My year old iiyama AG monitor needed to be slapped after is arrived to realign the grill. It evens mentions to do so in the instruction manual if you see faint vertical lines.

I gave it a good hard slap on the side and the vertical lines went away!

My old '98 KDS Visual Sensations 19 incher has isolated BNC connectors and a lifetime warrantee for some serious quality! Now all they make is cheap junk...
