Default Monitor - One NOT to Buy.

Dear all,

I hope I have put this in the correct thread.

18 months ago I purchased a LaCie Electron Blue 22in monitor costing over £500 a lot of money for a CRT but it carries the reputation of being the graphic designer’s tool.

No 1. Failed after 6 months
No 2. Didn’t work at all.

After weeks of correspondence LaCie agreed to send a brand new one to which I was entitled in their terms of waranty (No2 was reconditioned).

No3 was not brand new, was filthy dirty, stunk of cigarette smoke and chips, and yes, you’ve guessed – it didn’t work. This carried an engineer’s certification that it had been inspected and met the colour standard before despatch.

No 4, which was brand new, failed after two months.

It has taken many letters and phone calls and threats of legal action finally to get a refund.

You have been warned.

G B-S.
