Re: how old is your monitor
I'm not sure. But, they are all over 10 years old. I got an NEC, and HP monitor. I also got a old LG tube monitors which I keep around just in case my LCD monitors suddenly break.
One of my old tower computers still use an old Viewsonic tube monitor which still works pretty well when I use it.

I only had an old digital camera with one small dead pixel. I never had a monitor or TV with a dead pixel which is very visible.Skeithex wrote:I have a emachines monitor, pretty nice yet and still works. Thought for sure it break down by now or have a dead pixel.
I think Tube monitors rarely suffer from bad pixels because it uses a electron gun to draw the image on the screen. I seen some very old tube TVs and monitors which still have good picture quality, and brightness.

Re: how old is your monitor
it seems monitors at schools and work places seem to go dead pixel often. But I think thats because they press heavily on their screens.froggyboy604 wrote:I only had an old digital camera with one small dead pixel.

I agree monitors at schools and work have more dead pixels. I also think it is caused by people pressing hard on the screen.Skeithex wrote:

Some places have those plastic anti glare plastic over them, but it don't help much.
