HI Ken,
Good to hear you are happy with you rmonitor. I hope your get your
rebate from tigerdirect. I did not. I went as far as contacting the
president
of the co. who assured me that it would be sent out. I've spent as
much as the
rebate was worth on the phone trying to get it back. I WILL NEVER
BUY ANY THING FROM TIGERDIRECT, again. I wish you the
best, with your rebate.
