- Warning! The E-Machines T16-2 color monitor is probably not a good investment.
- We purchased 5 of them for our Mac's and within 2 months 3 have broken!!
- One came back from repair, and allready it is starting to flicker and has
- to be smacked on the side to stabilize the picture. All 3 had horizontal
- scan/HV related problems. The T16 is supposed to be so good, but it seems
- that the new T16-2 is junk. It is no wonder the EMF emissions are so low.
- It's because they don't emmit anything, not even a picture. The monitors
- were from two different dealers, and E-Machines says they have no other
- reports of such problems. This is hard to believe. Does anyone else have
- an E-Machines T16-2? How does it work so far? Good Luck...
