Actually, I was wondering the same thing, Matti. It seems that every time I build a rig & give 1 away, I somehow acquire another. Personally, I still use a 17" CRT (stop laughing) but that's mostly because the flat panel I really want (39") is still a bit out of my price range. In case there are no takers, I'd suggest finding a local charity, library or school to donate yours to. I've given several rigs w/CRT monitors loaded w/Edubuntu to a few friends' 5-7 yr. olds & they've been enjoying learning on them very much.

How many are we talking about here? Enough for me to build a hemispherical structure<br>of cathode emitters focused inwards on a single electromagnetic anode ring to combine<br>into a single beam? I'd like 200, please.
