[TriLUG] OT? Wiggly Monitor

[elfick]

Lance,
IANAMR (monitor repairman), but it sounds to me as if this is a monitor
issue, such as a gun tracking problem. It is most likely terminal unless
you are willing to cope with the jitters or pay to have it repaired,
which is not likely to be cost effective.
Condolences,
Lee
