TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I'm snowed under, so I'm only skimming the list, but here's another
suggestion:
Find the shop(s) in your area that repair and rebuild monitors.
The one here in Salt Lake City often gets in "factory seconds", which
is how I picked up my Viewsonic 21PS for only $700.00 (list at the
time was $2200.00) It's got a slight blue color cast on one edge,
but on a white page, it's not a problem. I could have spent $300.00
more and gotten a "perfect" second, but decided not to.
