But not just any monitor. The one I had before my current HP ZR24w. It was back at my first employer post college and I always coveted these monitors. I snagged one that was headed for disposal (people wanted flat LCDs - joke's on them, this was WAY better than most office LCD monitors in the mid 2000s, which were typically 6-bit color per channel and the actual screen performance was awful).
It says Dell but it is a Sony Trinitron, 21" CRT, 4:3. It would run up to 2048x1536, which, for the early/mid 2000s, was quite high. It's in fact higher than 1080p or even 1200p. Substantially so in the vertical. I usually used 1920x1440 @ 75Hz which, again, was quite high performance. It was great for photo stuff.
Anyway I found some old e-mails and it was starting to flicker and do weird stuff in early 2012. I moved it to the new house not working. Just this weekend I finally disposed of it. This is how long it takes me to finally part with something. That's broken. Imagine how hard it will be to throw away the Caprice.
