I bought a 17" 1024x768 LCD monitor for $500 10 years ago, when they
had just plummeted in price to the point where I was willing to
squander my money on one (hey, there was nothing wrong with my 20lb
CRT which could do 1150x860, except it took up ALL the desk space).

Last year Christmas I bought a 48" 1920x1024 TV for $500. Should have
traded in that other LCD at parity...
