Yes, I have. And it was even at Swarthmore! 'Course back then it was an IBM green-screen monitor connected to my XT compatible. I replaced it with the hot thing then: a 14" monitor that could do 800x600! But yes - monitors do just up and die, often because some simple component inside (e.g., capacitor, potentiometer) overheats. I feel your pain. Happy Thanksgiving!
