Monitors and Energy Star

[gaf at blu.org (Jerry Feldman)]

BTW: If anyone would like my old monitor, let me know, you can pick it up 
at my home or at the next meeting or Installfest. (I might wait until the 
installfest and use it there). 
The monitor works, but the colors are diverged and it is difficult to read.
