So long Mr Monitor
Well, my beloved 28" ViewSonic monitor has finally bit the dust and died. It was 12 years old (so served me very well), but it's annoying as nobody makes 28" 16:10 displays any more, and I hate 16:9 screens. The fact that it supported SoG was a bonus as well. I'm currently using an old HP 24" 16:10 monitor from the loft (acquired 2 of these free from work - always knew they'd come in handy some day). It's a nice screen, but feels so small when you are used to a 28" display.

Anyway, I've just splashed out on a Dell UP3017 - 30" 16:10 2560x1600 display. Not sure if it supports SoG, but seeing as I usually run my SGIs from a secondary 20" Dell screen, it's not a major concern. I'm thankful that there are still a few large 16:10 manufacturers out there - even if the screens aren't cheap!
