I use an HP S2031 flat screen monitor with my Windows XP computer, but I still have an HP MX70 CRT monitor that I used with my Windows 98 system. The MX70 still works, but I think the degausser is shot as it "re-gausses" the CRT every time I turn the monitor on. The raster has a bend in it I can't get rid of and probably won't until I go in and unplug the degausser from the monitor's main board. Other than that, the MX70 still works very well. It remains in storage until or unless my flat screen monitor quits, and even if it does, it has a four-year warranty so I don't see the MX-70 replacing it any time soon, except as a backup to the flat monitor.
