New Monitor!

I call it "blessings in disguise":

My lcd monitor broke this morning...sometime between the hours of 1am to 9am. After breakfast, I wanted to check if I had any e-mail before heading to school. I turned on the monitor, and it blinked at me. Colours of gray, white, and RGB danced on the screen endlessly. For those of you that are less technical, here is the first move any technical support agent does: I reset my computer. No luck. I decided to do a hard reset (unplug, replug). No dice. I cried. Nothing seemed to work, so I went to school.

Seven hours later, I returned....and played rock band. After which, I decided to see if the monitor had fixed itself (through prayer). I am clearly not righteous enough. (James 5:16). So I called Dell Tech Support, and they're sending me a NEW monitor (possibly a better upgrade) on Thursday or later. Granted, this does count as answered prayer...but, it would be much cooler if it was fixed like that. Even more cooler than the usual answered prayer! :D

Anyways, the point of this is two fold:
1. Now I don't have a computer to distract me from studying.
2. I get a new monitor!

UPDATE!!!

I got the new monitor on Thursday, just like the kind tech support lady said! BONUS!!! It is a 20" monitor! Furthermore, I lucked out and got the S-IPS matrix over the S-PVA which is supposed to have superior color and quality!!!! THANK YOU GOD!
