hi--it seems like there were a lot of problems with the M782 monitors made late last year and in early 2003. can anyone who has purchased one since september 2003 comment if they are having the same blackout problems that plagued the models produced in 2002?

also, can anyone verify who makes the monitor now (i.e., from those who recently purchased)--is it a phillips tube or a samsung tube at this time? and where? china, maylasia?

thank you,
ic
