I though since MAXIMUMPC is still rating this monitor the best I could get direction to getting my flickering one repaired. But from reading the other comments there doesn't seem to be even one good answer and we all know now that after the warranty Gateway will have nothing to do with you. Judy (Gateway's customer service) says "call around your area and find someone to repair it as we don't repair monitors". At least she didn't tell me to take a hike, so that's good!!

I tried Best Buy repair but after two weeks it came back with no repairs done at their Chicago service center. They gave me back the shipping cost as nothing was done. Still working with them to see if something can get done. TigerDirect was selling them and refurbish ones too, but not at the price I paid ($1800). Around $1000. as I remember. Shadoriix, your comment sounds a lot like one I read there. I was going to add a comment too as soon as I got something finished with Best Buy. When mind came back (two weeks) TigerDirect had stopped selling  the 30" monitors, no stock or problems???

Well that's my story and i'm sticking to it. BUT IF ANY ONE FINDS A PLACE THAT WILL SERVICE THESE BEST MONITORS PLEASE LET US ALL KNOW. TKS, TKS AND ANOTHER BIG TKS IF YOU FIND A PLACE. Come to Milwaukee and we'll have many beers on me for my appreciation. Not many brewerys left, but pretty of beer.

My last word to those that want the biggest and the best, you are taking a big gamble in getting one, if you can. Take the longest warranty available and hope it stays together for you. Otherwise Gateway won't help!!!
