Another area that the Zenith flat screen gets beat is in its ability
to keep a stable display.  (At work there are two of these monitors and I have
heard complaints from others.)  The display tends to expand and contract at a
steady rate once the monitor heats up.  Furthermore, these monitors have had to
be realigned several times.  I suggest that the Sony flatscreen is a better
choice since these problems appear to be absent.
