Before Clementine, this monitor was used with Fozzie, and was in fact the first LCD monitor I acquired, back in July of 2001.  I am amazed at how well this monitor has held up over time.  Other than being a slightly small 15 inches (which is still a common size), it has otherwise been great monitor to use over the years.  That monitor &#8212; and the 4 subsequent Samsung monitors I&#8217;ve purchased &#8212; has made me a big Samsung fan.
