 My Monitor went bang! - Manatee
The 18 year old 17" Dell monitor I got out of a skip a few years ago has just emitted a loud crack and is no longer showing signs of life. The fuse in the plug is intact. Is this a common failure mode?

I used it about twice a year to do tax returns and accounts, which are on an attached ancient PC. I've reluctantly ordered a new 24" for £99. The boss can have that and I'll inherit her old one.

I expect things to last longer than me nowadays.
