[Imc-g8-2005] [g8radio] COMPUTER MONITORS FOR IMC (fwd)

[Lee Hughes]

don't blame me for the being an eternal pestimist but
what kind of monitors do you get for £4 each?
Hopefully not 640x400 max resolution ones? there not
much use 1024x768 , and branded ones , like dell
trinitrons are good deals....

Old monitors cost money to be get rid off, £4 seems to
cheap to be real. You'll probably find it's £10 to
despose of them in a legal way (i.e. not leave them by
the road side). I was talking to Ben about this in
when we met in london, he was outlining the cost of
monitors, there not much of a value item becuase of
the high cost of transportation (i.e. they are heavy
and bulky).

However, I could be totaly wrong...

See you in edin..

COMPUTER MONITORS. Have got what I think is a very
good deal with  Recycle ICT based in Dalkeith - they
take old computers and rennovate them, sell them on
cheaply, providing low income groups with working home
computers. For more information, see www.weeep.org 
 
They will provide all 40 monitors (mixed sizes) for
150 pounds. That's less than 4 pounds a monitor. We
may also be able to get some of that back if we can
sell some of the monitors on to other homes. As part
of the deal I suggested that we could help promote
their work in some way, perhaps by having some info in
the centre about what they do. I also suggested that
we could document in some way their involvement and
make something for their website. I can take care of
that bit, it wil be good publicity for indymedia too. 
 
I said I would have ot check with everyone before we
went ahead, so please all let me know you're thoughts.
