The Novell NetWare box keeps rebooting over and over again yet no one has touched it? We're going on a stakeout

Re: Fluorescents...

We have a 'Philips' 1080p 24" telly in the kitchen. Takes about an hour to start up for some unfathomable reason. Not really a Philips I think...

...but I also have a 17" CRT computer monitor by Philips, the old 'Acorn AKF85". Probably the best monitor I've owned, though my first Iiyama at work comes close. My second - and more expensive - Iiyama at work is very much a disappointment with an awfully inconsistent backlight leading to very noticeable darker and lighter parts of the screen.

The AKF85 is a beast. Recently reminded of this as it has just reappeared from the attic in preparation for a house move. Shame I don't have the desk space to see how it compares with my current crop of LCDs.
