It doesn't look like it's been rained on since it's been put out. Externally it looks in *exceptionally* good condition.
Is it worth a look do you think?
2009. Is this near to the bad caps plague?

Hi jewelie
That is a nice monitor- go for it. The normal problem with LCD monitors is the back-light if it is EL CCFL. Either the EL CCFL tube goes or the connections corrode. The fix is not that difficult but fiddley. You can get replacement EL CCFL tubes and they are not that expensive, even from the US. But even if you can't get the monitor working, it would be a good source of parts.
