A bit of proof reading by BBC editors wouldn't be a bad thing....

That sounds a bit Irish...
And to the sarcastic poster suggesting I might have a CRT monitor still in use, I have two actually, and if Greta dares to open her supercilious gob I'll pull a third down from storage just to spite her

Ahh, Trinitron, a beautiful CRT 
I am still heavily into thermionic devices here. I'm probably one of the few where whilst a nuclear explosion may wipe me out, some of my receivers and transmitters may well remain functional, unlike these new fangled silicon chip semiconductor devices

My PC's? They are entirely conventional Windows 7 64 bit Pro ones, laptops and desktops, and a few Raspberry Pi's and a Lenovo Tiny doing menial tasks. Did you think i meant I had PC's with valves in them?

No, just curious what setup you were using with CRT monitors. I am a big fan of retro pc gaming. I use a similar setup with an i7 920 with Vista ultimate just for retro gaming and menial tasks as well, although no CRT but a Dell 19" ultrasharp instead.
I went through a phase where I was getting eye strain and headaches with an LCD monitor so pulled the Eizo CRT ones out. It turned out the LCD monitor had a fault, but I quite like a CRT display so kept two running.
