[ale] OT: Looking for 03 Used LCD Monitors - was Need Help Sending PCs To Haiti

[James Sumners]

I have an old CTX 15" that should be working (1024x768 max
resolution). I also have a Samsung 17" with a missing power button
face (have to poke your finger inside to press the actual button).
And, finally, I have a 22" Acer.
